Look Homeward, Angel Debuts October 7

An authentic American classic, “Look Homeward, Angel,” captures the sardonic humor and the grief about a youth coming of age. This story, by Ketti Frings and based on Thomas Wolfe’s novel Look Homeward Angel concentrates on the last third of Wolfe’s story. The play vividly portrays Eugene Gant, his mother, who is obsessed by her material holdings and who maintains barriers against the love of her family, his father, a stonecutter imprisoned by his failures, and the brother who never breaks away.
