The murder-mystery is an award-winning performance.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (QC Life) - A Pulitzer Prize-winning performance is setting up shop here in the Queen City over the next couple weeks.

A Soldier’s Play,’ a thrilling play that has rocketed back into the spotlight in recent years, is taking center stage at the Knight Theater in Uptown from now until Jan. 22.

The play is set in 1944 on an Army base in Louisiana. A murder-mystery breaks out after a sergeant is murdered, keeping the audience on the edge of its seat.

Following the murder, a series of interrogations triggers a gripping barrage of questions about sacrifice, service and identity in America.

Broadway performer Norm Lewis plays Capt. Richard Davenport in the play, and sat down with QC Life’s Kristen Miranda to talk more about the play and its plot.
