The Heidi Chronicles
Soulpepper Theatre
BY WENDY WASSERSTEIN | DIRECTED BY GREGORY PREST
Wendy Wasserstein’s Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning comedy follows one woman from a 1960’s teen to 1980’s career woman, with all of the touching and heartbreaking moments in between. A sharp-eyed and personal look at feminism, friendship, and social change, The Heidi Chronicles explores the notion of “having it all.”

“…clever, funny and unmistakably relevant… Gregory Prest’s direction feels considered and cohesive, and the excellent ensemble cast is well worth watching. The power of this kind of period piece derives from its ability to show us how far we’ve come while simultaneously revealing what has yet to change.” - Now Magazine
