Synopsis: | This show is part of the New York Musical Theatre Festival. The History Of War is spun from the imagination of a 12-year-old boya megalomaniac in training. As he struggles with homework assignments and peculiar visions, he conjures up seven of the most famous tyrants of all time. They did horrible things. He wants to do horrible things. His parents are worried. . .and everybody sings! . . . well, almost everybody. Reality and pathology neatly converge in this terrifyingly subversive new musical. | |||||
