About the show

Father Comes Home From The Wars (Parts 1, 2 & 3) has been awarded the 2015 Kennedy Prize for Drama. This explosively powerful Civil War drama by Pulitzer Prize-winner Suzan-Lori Parks follows a slave, Hero, from West Texas to the Confederate battlefield. Inspired in part by the stories and scope of Greek tragedy, this trilogy examines the mess of war and the cost of freedom. This play is a co-production with The Public Theater and is presented as part of The National Civil War Project.
