COMING HOME
BY ATHOL FUGARD
DIRECTED BY
GORDON EDELSTEIN

Veronika 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.

In this stunning world premiere, master playwright Athol Fugard, hailed by Time magazine as “the greatest active playwright in the English-speaking world,” finds hope in human relationships and in the power of the imagination.
