Homecoming – A Play for the 14/48 Theater Festival

February 20, 2024

In January I wrote two 10-minute plays for the 14/48 Theater Festival at Open Space for Arts and Community.

Here is a glimpse of the second evening’s play, “Homecoming,” the story of a teacher facing his mortality, a bright but shy student, the teacher’s hero Simone Weil, and her heroes Plato and Socrates. Click on the images to see them at full size.

Director: Charlotte Tiencken

Cast: David Mielke, Elise Morrill, Julia Prud-homme, and Marie Glanz
