America Hurrah is a satirical play by Jean-Claude van Itallie, which premiered at the Pocket Theatre in New York City on November 7, 1966. Directed by Jacques Levy and Joseph Chaikin, the play was an early expression of the burgeoning 1960s counterculture, expressing discontent with American consumerism and involvement in the Vietnam War. America Hurrah consists of three one-act plays: "Interview"; "TV"; and "Motel".
A dying soul travels through spiritual and emotional realms, from the moment of death and a vision of clear white light through peaceful and angry energies, encounters with demons and the Lord of Death, and the choice of a new home before entering life again.
