Review Quotes: "Elliot, A Soldier's Fugue is that rare and rewarding thing: a theater work that succeeds on every level while creating something new. The playwright combines a lyrical ear with a sophisticated sense of structure to trace the legacy of war through three generations of a Puerto Rican family. Without ever invoking current politics, Elliot, A Soldier's Fugue manages to be a deeply poetic, touching, and often funny indictment of the war in Iraq." - Phoebe Hoban, New York Times
"A lush and evocative tone poem about the way the landscape of the soul is transformed by war...A writer of astonishing lyricism and intellectual rigor." -Atlanta Journal Constitution
"Simple, poignant and achingly evocative...both utterly realistic and profoundly moving" - Jessica Branch, TimeOut New York
"Hudes's story reaches beyond the politics and pressures of this particular conflict to a collection of more universal observations - of what war means for the person, the family and the society from generation to generation." - Steven Snyder, The Villager
