Home is Where the Heart Hurts

Home Is Where the Heart Hurts is a new moving, honest play that explores love, friendship, loyalty, and the complicated idea of “home.” Through the lives of Ben, Alice, Jay, John and those around them, the story shines a light on the bonds that hold us together — and the wounds that can quietly shape us.

The play thoughtfully explores real-life issues including domestic violence, alcoholism, prescription drug misuse, and emotionally abusive relationships, offering a raw but compassionate look at how these experiences affect individuals and families. It’s deeply human, sometimes uncomfortable, but ultimately rooted in empathy and understanding.

A gentle note for our audience:

Some of the themes and moments may feel close to home. While the story is told with care, honesty, and sensitivity, it may be emotionally challenging for some viewers. Contains strong language and adult themes.
