The Return of the Prodigal

The Drama Desk and Obie Award-wining Mint Theater Company presents a rare New York revival of St. John Hankin’s The Return of the Prodigal. Jonathan Bank, Mint Artistic Director, directs.

The prodigal of the title is Eustace Jackson, the son of a wealthy manufacturer. Five years earlier Eustace was packed off to Australia to make his fortune, but he only succeeds at failing in everything he attempts. Desperate and destitute, he returns home, a charming loser.
