Douglas Taurel Talks “The American Soldier” — New NYC Run!

Douglas Taurel joins us to talk about the powerful return of his acclaimed one-man show The American Soldier, now back in New York for a limited run. The piece has toured nationwide for over a decade, including the Kennedy Center, and tells the deeply human stories of 14 characters—men, women, and families forever changed by service. Through real letters and lived experiences, Douglas brings to life the courage, trauma, resilience, and sacrifice embedded in generations of American military history. In our conversation, we dive into why these stories still resonate, what it takes to embody fourteen lives in one performance, and how this new NYC engagement brings fresh urgency to the work. Douglas shares the emotional responsibility behind portraying veterans with honesty and respect, the audience reactions that have stayed with him, and the mission behind keeping these voices alive on stage. #TheAmericanSoldier #DouglasTaurel #NYCTheatre #OffBroadway #VeteransVoices #TheRoundtableWithRobertBannon #365Chats #TheBestIsYetToCome Learn more about your ad choices.
