A prodigal son returns home unrecognized, having been abroad for twenty years, to an inn run by his mother and sister — who have been killing lodgers in order to make a living for themselves. In an immersive re-imagining of this play, described by Camus as the theatrical piece that “resembles him the most,” The Misunderstanding explores concepts of grief, guilt, and the absurdity of existence in a world that is equally cruel to the innocent and the criminal.
