Look Homeward, Angel

Written by Ketti Frings and Thomas Wolfe

An authentic American classic, this powerful and vital play captures the sardonic humor and the grief, both private and universal, of Wolfe's novel about a youth coming of age. Concentrating 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.

Opening Night: Wednesday, September 26, 1962 - Closing Night: Saturday, October 6, 1962
