General of Hot Desire written by John Guare is a one act play inspired by Shakespeare's Sonnet 153 and 154. Nine young people take on the task of interpreting the sonnet and making a play from it. Each character has a different point of view of what the right answer is. But their goals do not end at solving the sonnets but finding the deeper meaning of love and God. Enjoy a play that travels through stories from the Bible, Torah, Qur'an, and modern times where everyone is going in different directions but searching inherently for the same thing.
