Beyond Glory

June 2 @ 8:00 pm - 9:30 pm

Starting Memorial Day weekend, Outcast Theatre Collective will present Stephen Lang’s theatrical adaptation of Larry Smith’s book Beyond Glory: Medal of Honor Heroes in Their Own Words. Eight veterans from World War II, Korea, and Vietnam, render firsthand accounts of the actions which resulted in each of them receiving the nation’s highest military award, the Medal of Honor. Beyond Glory gathers these men together in the present to look back on the defining moments of their lives and to examine the meaning of courage, duty, and, ultimately, humility.
Directed by Ned Avrill-Snell, Beyond Glory will star Cornelio Aguilera and Joshua Groff, both mentees of Stageworks’ founder, the late Anna Brennen. After preview performances in their old home, the production ships across the Bay for a two week run at The Off-Central, founded by Army Veteran and USO performer Ward Smith.
We are so excited to bring these stories to Tampa and St. Pete. Whether you are a military family, work at or by MacDill, or are as civilian as civilians get, we are all affected by each and every one of our service members and owe them a debt of gratitude. These stories get to the heart of what it means to serve and to sacrifice.
