Prodigal Son

In one of John Patrick Shanley's most personal plays, a 17-year-old boy from the Bronx suddenly finds himself in a private school in New Hampshire. He's violent, gifted, alienated and on fire with a ferocious loneliness. Is the kid a star or a disaster? Drawing on his own experiences, Shanley creates an explosive portrait of a young man on the verge of either salvation or destruction.
