Mitch and Murray Productions recently wrapped up the Western Canadian premiere of Heroes of the Fourth Turning by Will Arbery. The show ran from Friday, January 31 to Sunday, February 9, 2025 at Studio 16 in Vancouver.
The play was wonderfully received by Vancouver audiences and played to sold-out houses for the majority of the performances. Check out what the critics and audience had to say HERE.
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.
