DRIVE BACK HOME
Frameline, Herbst Theatre
Entertaining, heart-wrenching, and unexpectedly funny, Drive Back Home is a tragi-comedy about brotherhood, forgiveness, and finding connection across deep divides. It’s the winter of 1970 in small-town New Brunswick when Weldon (Charlie Creed-Miles) — a stoic, by-the-book plumber — is ordered by his mother to retrieve his estranged, openly gay brother Perley (a magnetic Alan Cumming) from a Toronto jail, where he’s been arrested for “public indecency.”
