Hero’s Welcome

In this regional premiere of the play by one of Britain’s most celebrated playwrights, a decorated military hero returns home after 17 years to a town he left amidst rumors of arson, infidelity, and abandonment. With his new wife in tow, secrets and old scores emerge and are settled in bedrooms, town halls, and on the shooting range. Tony Award winner Alan Ayckbourn’s dark comedy gives us “warm characters and crafty storytelling” (Daily Mail, UK) as it hurtles toward a shocking and poignant conclusion.
