AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE Devotion. Delusion. Sin. It’s nearing midnight in Wyoming, where four young conservatives have gathered at a backyard after-party. They’ve returned home to toast their mentor Gina, newly inducted as president of a tiny Catholic college. But as their reunion spirals into spiritual chaos and clashing generational politics, it becomes less a celebration than a vicious fight to be understood. A Pulitzer finalist, Will Arbery’s acclaimed play is an intelligent and uncomfortable investigation of modern American conservatism. Revealing his characters’ humanity, Arbery never losing sight of their dangerous potential. On a chilly night in the middle of America, Heroes of the Fourth Turning speaks to the heart of a country at war with itself.
