THE STORY: As described by Howard Taubman: "BORAK functions on two levels. On the surface Mr. Hock is telling a Civil War story in which the hard, bitter duty of an officer must override his love for his son. But the play is also a religious parable of God and the sacrifice of his Son."
An Off-Broadway success, which introduced a richly talented playwright to the American theatre. BORAK is a drama of brisk action and soaring dialogue, which captures the excitement and meaningfulness of a crucial battle in the Civil War. It projects the "feel" of actual conflict, and probes deeply into the fears and motivations of men at war. "An uncommonly thoughtful and provocative play" - NY Times. "It is an earnest and heartfelt play" - NY Post. "Written with depth and intelligence
he (Hock) is a skilled and graceful writer. He is able to achieve mood and style and his characters are cut from whole cloth." - NY Journal-American.
