On Stage
Tunnel Rat
April 5-29, 2012
National Pastime Theater - 941 W. Lawrence Ave.
In late 1965, after a run-in with the law, 17 year old Ronnie Giles was given the option of joining the Army...or going to jail. He chose the Army and inevitably-VietNam. Because he was short, he was "volunteered" to go into the Vietcong Tunnels in and around the jungles of Chu Chi. By now it is early 1966. He is 18 years old and yet another reluctant Tunnel Rat is born.
Tunnel Rat explores the complex nature of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and what is important to a man...and a nation.
