Synopsis

It's the legendary hot summer of 1959 and while the Cold War rages and America tunes into <i>I Love Lucy</i>, Captain Jack Fox - believed missing in action in the fields of France fifteen years before - is about to be reunited with his family in the Hamptons.

But is this really Jack Fox?

And if it isn't, who is this man?

And why are there twenty-two other families so intent on claiming him as their own?

A sparkling comedy of identity, lost and found, based on Jean Anouilh's hit 1937 play, <i>Le Voyageur sans bagage</i>, Anthony Weigh's <i>Welcome Home, Captain Fox!

</i>premiered at the Donmar Warehouse, London, in February 2016.
