Photo Flash: Berkeley Rep Presents COMING HOME
Now South Africa's master dramatist comes back to Berkeley Rep with a new show: Coming Home. Ten years after running off to the city to pursue her dreams, Veronika returns in rags. Among her meager belongings, she carries a desperate secret-and determination to plant the seeds of a new life for her son. It's a "sad, sweet, and gently moving" show, says the New York Times, "a beautifully acted production directed by Gordon Edelstein." In Coming Home, Fugard once again confronts the hard truths of his homeland while celebrating the power of hope.
The Players
Athol Fugard's scripts have earned countless accolades, including the Academy Award, Obie Award and Tony Award. Berkeley Rep produced three of his previous plays: A Lesson from Aloes, The Road to Mecca and Valley Song.
Gordon Edelstein is artistic director of Long Wharf Theatre, where this show had its world premiere. He has staged acclaimed productions in London, New York and across America.
