"Every family has its secrets... and this surprise homecoming is about to get real messy."

The world premiere of PRODIGAL, written and directed by Toronto's rising talent Paolo Santalucia, follows the return home of Edmund Clark, the gay, alcoholic, eldest son of a prominent Toronto family, after he is cut off from the family trust. On the way home, Edmund meets Levi, a man with whom he impulsively engages in a passionate encounter before realizing Levi is also en route to Edmund’s family home. Why are the Clarks able to support a stranger in their home while turning their back on their eldest son? PRODIGAL examines themes of queerness, privilege, marginalization, and forgiveness, as these two young men attempt to return to the families they have lost–one to confront his past and the other to start his future.

A hot new play from “one of the most exciting indie theatre companies in Toronto” - The Howland Company (NOW Magazine), produced in association with Crow’s Theatre at their East-End Arts Hub Streetcar Crowsnest, PRODIGAL promises to be a thrilling, drama-filled night out at the theatre!

Review: PRODIGAL at Streetcar Crowsnest

March 02, 2023

What did our critic think of PRODIGAL at Streetcar Crowsnest? PRODIGAL, written and directed by The Howland Company's Paolo Santalucia and now playing at Crow's Theatre, takes place entirely in the kitchen of the wealthy Clark family over a weekend where the past comes home to roost. Patriarch Rowan Clark (Rick Roberts) finds out that he is about to come into a powerful political position, as his son Henry (Cameron Laurie) and daughter-in-law to be Sadie (Veronica Hortiguela) celebrate their engagement in the other room. Unfortunately for him, his prodigal son chooses that evening to return, mostly because he finds he's been cut off from the family funding to preserve their clean image under the added scrutiny politics will require.
