    9 Circles

    "Am I monster?" Bill Cain's award-winning psychological drama follows a young, honorably discharged soldier and the twists and turns in his mind as he is prosecuted for rape and murder he may have committed against Iraqi civilians during the war.

    "Am I monster?" Bill Cain's award-winning psychological drama follows a young, honorably discharged soldier and the twists and turns in his mind as he is prosecuted for rape and murder he may have committed against Iraqi civilians during the war.

    Following Dante's nine circles of hell, every scene takes us further into a troubled mind, as the young vet battles with lawyers, drill sergeants, priests, psychiatrists, and ultimately, himself.

    What makes a killer? What makes a monster? And what is an act of mercy?

      The play follows a young soldier, on a private army trial for supposedly committing killing against Iraqi citizens while on the war front. The play raises fascinating and disturbing questions surrounding several issues—including the moral confusion of war, callous political motives behind international combat, and universal matters of spirituality and redemption. The play is structured in nine segments which was interesting and different to watch. I enjoyed watching the actors/actresses facial expression in this play they seemed so realistic and heart touching. The lighting was good and the scenic was ok, I felt that a few variations would have been better. The actors did an wonderful job with expiring there voice as well.
