THE GHENT PLAYHOUSE TO PRESENT TOM STOPPARD’S HEROES
 
The Ghent Playhouse, off Route 66 in Columbia County, will present “Heroes”, Tom Stoppard’s translation of Gerald Sibleyras’ play “Le Vent de Peupliers” directed by Cathy Lee-Visscher.  The comedy will open on January 23 and play through February 8, 2015.
 
The story: In 1959, at a French retirement home for ex-servicemen, three WWI veterans spend their days sharing past glories, irritating each other, and gossiping about unbearable fellow “inmates.”  Only the genius of Tom Stoppard can take such a bittersweet crawl-to-the-end-of-life scenario and turn it into a hysterical romp, as the Great War heroes plan their escape.
 
Tickets are $20, $17 for Friends of the Playhouse and $10 for students. They may be reserved by calling 1-800-838-3006.  Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sunday matinees at 2 p.m.
