Prayer for My Enemy

This world premiere from Craig Lucas explores the connection between two long-separated childhood friends, Tad and Billy, who are unexpectedly reunited as adults. As Tad reconnects with Billy, as well as with Billy’s parents and sister, Lucas creates a portrait of an American family, divided by their experiences and beliefs but bound together by a fierce, unarticulated love. Lucas illuminates their lives by literally giving voice to the unspeakable: Prayer for My Enemy includes not only conversations between the characters, but also dialogue that captures their interior lives in which they express their private thoughts for only the audience to hear. Bartlett Sher directs.
