| Description |
A kaleidoscopic vision of a postwar media-constructed America. With the New Deal as its point of lift-off Pax Americana propels us through the atomic barrier, and on to the New Frontier. Its payload: John F.Kennedy, Marilyn Monroe, Martin Luther King Jr, Lee Harvey Oswald, Joe McCarthy and Lennie Bruce. Its crew: two generations of American Dreamers. Its point of touchdown: Dallas, Texas November 22 1963. In a journey ranging from comic cabaret to epic tragedy, Pax Americana places its audience on a collision course with The Truth.
