Romina Paula's The Whole of Time offers no easy answers.

In this blisteringly funny and profoundly affecting solo performance, comedian and storyteller Bill Posley invites us not merely to witness his life’s extraordinary detour into war, but to walk beside him, combat boots on the ground, through terrain where absurdity and anguish march hand in hand.
