Home Free! and Heracles

Classic and contemporary collide in this unlikely pairing of Lanford Wilson and Steven Gaultney, two provocative New York playwrights. Home Free!, Wilson’s beloved 1964 play about troubled siblings, is an endearing look at a deep love gone wrong, a piece that somehow finds “an astonishingly tender tension between sickness and sweetness” (Time Magazine). Gaultney’s new exploration of the Heracles myth takes a powerful journey into the psyche of a haunted superhero. Together, these two plays capture the fall from a blissful fairy tale world into a terrifying new reality.
