Mitch and Murray Productions is proud to present the Western Canadian premiere of Heroes of the Fourth Turning by Will Arbery from Friday, January 31 to Sunday, February 9, 2025 at Studio 16 in Vancouver.
Directed by John Murphy. Performers: Jennifer Clement, David Kaye, Elizabeth Barrett, Aaron Craven and Nyiri Karakas.
In this multi-award-winning and Pulitzer Prize-finalist play, four young conservatives have gathered to toast the newly inducted president of their tiny Catholic college – one week after the Charlottesville riots in 2017. Their reunion spirals into spiritual chaos and clashing generational politics, becoming less a celebration than a vicious fight to be understood. On a dark, cold night in the middle of America, Will Arbery’s haunting play speaks to the heart of a country at war with itself.
“An astonishing play.”
– Jesse Green, New York Times
“Flawless… A work of singular distinction, one for which the word ‘remarkable’ is an understatement. Arbery is a greatly talented writer who has given us a drama as exciting and challenging – nay, daring – as any new play I’ve ever reviewed.”
– Terry Teachout, Wall Street Journal
“Feels like a miracle.”
– Glenn Sumi, Toronto Star
