Coming Home, Fugard's new play, will be staged in Long Wharf Theatre in January 2009. The director will be Gordon Edelstein.
The play is described as:
"Veronica Jonkers left her beloved grandfather's farm to pursue her dream of a singing career in Cape Town. Carrying a painful secret and a heart filled with disappointment, she returns after his death and strives to plant the seeds of a new life for her young son."
"Coming Home essentially finds hope in the bleakest of situations," Edelstein said. "As always, he finds beauty and redemption in relationships, as well as the power of the imagination."
"...Athol assured me that I would see many of the characters in the play wandering around the streets of New Bethesda," Edelstein said.
