Seduced

Seduced depicts an almost surreal Howard Hughes-like figure, in the character of Henry Hackamore the drama’s tragic-comic lead. A bearded recluse, Henry is the world’s richest man alive and in the latter days of his life. This comic and brilliantly revealing allegory is both entertaining and often thought provoking. Once again, Sam Shepard has penned a tale which examines the mythic aspects of American Life. However, in this dramatic portrait through the life and loves of a man (Hughes) who was no more than a dollar sign to millions of people. Seduced is part of the Sam Shepard Festival.
