Drum Taps
adapted by Lindsay Price from Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman
35 Minutes, Simple Set, 66 pages
Did you ask dulcet rhymes from me?
Did you seek the civilian's peaceful and languishing rhymes?

The poems in Drum Taps represent Walt Whitman's firsthand account of the Civil War. See the words, the emotion, the blood come to life in this theatrical adaptation. This is not your traditional readers theatre or poetry recital. This is flesh and bone words breathed to their fullest humanity. This is struggle and pain. This is confusion and contradiction. This is war.
