About
A heroic, young, and shellshocked soldier, Wesley Hepton returns home from the trenches. To help support the family, his mother submits his art portfolio to painter Mr. Lupine. Wesley attends an interview to become his apprentice.
But on arrival, he encounters another kind of madness that threatens to push him to destruction as he discovers the ulterior motives behind the artist’s palette.
A gripping thriller, Shellshocked, by Red Ladder Theatre Company, explores the horrors of those who served and the horrors of those who did not. It explores loyalty, relationships, and the desire to make great art.
Warning: Contains discussions of PTSD, suicide, references to the war, a prop gun, and gunshot sound effects.
