Heroes is set in 1959. Gustave, Philippe and Henri are residents of a French Military Hospital. Meeting every morning on their quiet terrace, Gustave, Philippe and Henri bicker and tease each other as they reflect on their lives. Looking over the cemetery to the poplars beyond, they dream of escape. Will today be the day they finally make it to Indochina or perhaps only as far as the top of the hill? The Oscar Winning Writer Tom Stoppard has adapted Gérald Sibleyras’ exquisite comedy -which when it opened in the West End received the most ecstatic reviews. Three grumpy old men reside in a military hospital. Could today be the day they escape. Running time 1hr 30 mins approx. with no interval.
