America The Beautiful: Homecoming

Greenwich Theatre presents
AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL
by Neil LaBute

4 Actors, 3 Chapters, 2 Venues, 1 Writer.

This unique, split-venue production unfolds across King’s Head Theatre and Greenwich Theatre, presented as three distinct chapters at two venues. The first plays at King’s Head Theatre from 9–21 March, before transferring to Greenwich Theatre on 4 April, inviting audiences to encounter a bold collection of short plays in contrasting spaces, each reshaping the emotional and theatrical impact of the work.

In this sensational UK premiere from the writer of In The Company Of Men and The Shape Of Things comes an exclusive collection of savage short plays offering a uniquely skewed view of life and relationships in the modern world.

Divisive, challenging and inspiring, Neil LaBute is of the most potent voices in theatre, and the unique run follows our series of revivals of work by the 21st century’s most notable playwrights.

These and more quietly shattering vignettes prove, without a doubt, that “there is no writer on the planet these days who is writing better than Neil LaBute” The New Yorker.

Written over the past decade for the LaBute New Theater Festival in the US, these shorts are here brought together for the first time and for a strictly limited run.
