267 East Main Street Gloucester
4000 Miles was the winner of the 2012 Obie Award for Best New Play, Time magazine's Best Play of 2012 and a Pulitzer finalist. Gloucester Stage Company invites you to take this engaging trip of 4000 Miles. Exhausted in every way after a cross-country bike journey, 21-year-old Leo ends up crashing and crossing swords with his feisty 91-year-old grandmother Vera at her Greenwich Village apartment. Written by Amy Herzog (After the Revolution), this poignant comic drama explores the fine line between growing up and growing old as Leo and Vera seek common ground between his carefree hippie lifestyle and her surprisingly radical political views. The New York Times calls 4000 Miles "a funny, moving, altogether wonderful drama."
