For years theater director Bryan Doerries has been producing ancient Greek tragedies for a wide range of at-risk people in society. His is the personal and deeply passionate story of a life devoted to reclaiming the timeless power of an ancient artistic tradition to comfort the afflicted.   Doerries leads an innovative public health project—Theater of War—that produces ancient dramas for current and returned soldiers, people in recovery from alcohol and substance abuse, tornado and hurricane survivors, and more. Tracing a path that links the personal to the artistic to the social and back again, Doerries shows us how suffering and healing are part of a timeless process in which dialogue and empathy are inextricably linked.   The originality and generosity of Doerries’s work is startling, and The Theater of War—wholly unsentimental, but intensely felt and emotionally engaging—is a humane, knowledgeable, and accessible book that will both inspire and enlighten.

I needed this book so badly, and I didn't even know it. As a drama teacher at a classical school I know the power of our inherited tragedies to connect us to universal questions about what the value of our existence. But I've always struggled to help my students see the myths of our daily experiences too, largely because of their inexperience and because popular culture is firmly checked at the entrance door each morning.In 2018 I was preparing to produce Trojan Women with a class of 12th graders, and when I read the play it immediately struck me how relatable these women were as victims of war, in our time as victims of domestic violence, rape culture, sex trafficking, forced single motherhood, etc. This led me to Doerries' book, and it revolutionized everything. My students were mostly young women preparing to leave for college, and I knew the dangers they might be facing on a college campus and in the workplace. I also knew several of them (young men and women) planned to study law, public policy, and international relations. So rather than wag my finger at them in hopes they'd listen, I asked the story to speak to them instead. Every one of the them got a copy of Doerries' book along with their scripts, and both were a gift.Fast forward to 2021, and I am now embarking on Antigone with another group of 12th graders with another new copy of this book. Unlike in 2018, most of my students now are apathetic and confused. Expectations let them down big time over the last 11 months and they don't even know what it means to move on. Where is their dissociation coming from? Why do they simply look at our civil wars and Covid terrors and shrug? I can't tell whether I need to comfort the afflicted or afflict the comfortable. So I'm struggling to show them it's really good for us to perform a tragedy right now. As Doerries says, it "validate[s] our moral distress at living in a universe in which many of our actions and choices are influenced by external powers far beyond our comprehension" (p. 13).I don't know where this production will lead us, but I do know The Theater of War is my lamp in the darkness. I am more grateful than I know how to express in words, so hopefully our play will do it better.
