The Roads to Home
by Horton Foote
directed by Michael Wilson
presented by Primary Stages in association with Catherine Adler and Jamie deRoy
Over our 32-year history, Primary Stages has produced some of the finest works of legendary Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Horton Foote. From The Day Emily Married to Harrison, TX and the Tony-nominated Dividing the Estate, Foote’s legacy has flourished on our stage. We’re proud to celebrate the Centennial of his birth with a new production of his comic drama, The Roads to Home. Set in the 1920s, this compelling play follows three women, who have all moved to Houston, now grappling with the eternal question, “What is home?” The Roads to Home offers a rare chance to experience a Foote gem not seen on the New York Stage in 25 years, in one of New York’s most intimate and historic venues, the Cherry Lane Theatre.
This timeless production will feature direction by Michael Wilson (Foote's longtime collaborator who won Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards for The Orphans' Home Cycle) and performances from Drama Desk Award winner Devon Abner (The Orphans' Home Cycle, The Trip to Bountiful), Dan Bittner ("The Leftovers," The Vertical Hour), Lortel Award nominee Rebecca Brooksher (Dying City, "The Good Wife"), Tony Award and Drama Desk Award winner Harriet Harris (Thoroughly Modern Millie, "Frasier"), Tony Award nominee and Drama Desk Award winner Hallie Foote (Dividing the Estate, Harrison, TX), Matt Sullivan (Standing on Ceremony, Macbeth).
Scenic Design by Jeff Cowie, Costume Design by David C. Woolard, Lighting Design by David Lander, Original Music and Sound Design by John Gromada, Casting by Stephanie Klapper Casting.
Post-performance talkbacks led by a member of the artistic staff followed performances on Thursday, October 13; Friday, October 21; Wednesday, November 2; Wednesday, November 9; and Thursday, November 17.
