Directed by Anne McEvoy
Show Dates: January 17 – February 9, 2020 on Thursdays,
Fridays and Saturdays at 8 pm and Sundays at 2 pm
It is August 1959, France, in a home for retired military men, where World War I vets Henri (Bob Goddard), Philippe (Ron Newell) and Gustave (Robert Hawkes) pass their days gossiping, reminiscing and exasperating one another with harebrained schemes to escape.
The play is a softly heroic treatment of three war heroes for whom death is a familiar presence. They decide to take on one final adventure – granted, an impossible and faintly ridiculous adventure – before the outside world completely forgets them.
