USA: Oye! Times readers Get FREE $30 to spend on Amazon, Walmart…Heroes: Tom Stoppard’s (Arcadia) Translation of Hit French Comedy
Santa Paula Theater Center (Santa Paula, CA)
Thanks to a witty and elegant translation from Tom Stoppard, the Oscar- and Tony-winning playwright of Arcadia and Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, the French play Heroes has been a hit with audiences in New York, London and D.C. Three WWI vets spend their days gossiping and griping on the terrace of an old soldier’s home … but just underneath their grumbling churn long ago memories of the trenches … and dreams of what tomorrow may bring. Together, their gaze fixed on a distant grove of poplars, the “heroes” plan one final adventure: an escape to freedom. Now a fresh production of this Olivier Award winner for Best New Comedy comes to the Santa Paula Theater Center.
