Little Theatre of Norfolk presents "For the Honor and Glory" (streaming)2021-07-03T00:00:00Written and directed by local playwright, Moriah Joy, For the Honor and Glory depicts the strength of women in a world weakened by war. War has become a part of the tapestry of America, affecting daily life in various ways since its inception.

We follow Miranda, an Irish immigrant during the height of Irish gang wars in New York; Ellie, the wife of a Tuskegee airmen; Lana, a Vietnamese war bride; and Tristan, who’s fiancée navigates military discrimination. Watch as their stories come together and show the beauty of how we’re stronger together.
