Overview
One of America’s preeminent dramatists, Pulitzer Prize winner Horton Foote returns to the fictional town of Harrison, Texas, with The Carpetbagger’s Children & The Actor, two captivating plays about the bewildering and unsettling encroachment of change in the American South.
In a series of haunting dramatic monologues, The Carpetbagger’s Children tells the story of three daughters who struggle against the pressures of modern life to uphold their father’s dying wish. It is a timeless and elegiac portrayal of a once-vibrant family slowly disintegrating over time.
The Actor tells the hilarious and moving story of a young man who’ll make any sacrifice to keep his dream from being crushed under the weight of his parents’ expectations. It’s a charming exploration of artistic ambition from one of modern theater’s greatest artists.
“The Carpetbagger’s Children smiles sweetly as it shares the emotional brutality of a family, and a nation, in transition . . . a sad, devastating beauty.” —Newsday
