Dogfight is a haunting Pasek and Paul musical, set on the eve of three Marines’ deployment to Vietnam. The characters, navigating the tumultuous transition between adolescence and true adulthood, are, like the country in 1963, captured in a moment where they stand unknowingly on the brink of unimaginable change. Dogfight explores toxic masculinity and the healing power of compassion, the tender beginnings of an unlikely love story and the brutal effects of war.
