A Comedy by Gérald Sibleyras
Translated by Tom Stoppard
Directed by Don Keith

November 14 to November 30, 2013

It is 1959 and Gustav, Philippe, and Henri are once again under siege. The three WWI heroes have been living for years in a home for retired soldiers and have formed an uneasy friendship. But the overbearing nuns and relentless repetition of days have them plotting one more escape. A playful character study full of camaraderie and hope.
