REVIEWS:
"Astonishing and riveting. Heroes risks a rare stage subject: Christian conservatism. A red-state unicorn."
The New York Times
"A perfect production that left me with my heart in my mouth."
Time Out New York
"That the playwright makes this garrulous, opinionated crew so engaging – and their concerns so relevant – is a mark of his considerable imagination and empathy."
Lighting & Sound America
"The sneaky, simple brilliance of Heroes of the Fourth Turning is that it's not actually about its characters' talking points at all. It's about them. It's not shouting; it's listening."

It's nearing midnight in Wyoming, where four young conservatives have gathered at a backyard after-party. They've returned home to toast their mentor Gina, newly inducted as president of a tiny Catholic college. But as their reunion spirals into spiritual chaos and clashing generational politics, it becomes less a celebration than a vicious fight to be understood. |
