'Home Front' is a highly-charged, explosive play by Daniel Algie that reveals how the violence of distant war affects the heart of America. Euripides' 'Herakles' is re-imagined as the unsettling homecoming of a Vietnam MIA. Like a tragic poet, Algie rips into the souls of two children, their grandfather, mother and soldier-father shattered by war. His realistic, intimate drama hits with the force of a mass outcry in our war-weary age.
