Valley Song is a tender poem of deep, deep love between two human beings, a story of rebirth, and of miracles at hand. —John Heilpern, New York Observer

Rarely has a playwright been so closely identified with his country and his people as Athol Fugard. Fugard's extensive body of work has served as one of the moral beacons during and after apartheid in South Africa, and in Valley Song—a coming-of-age story about a young girl seeking the courage to embrace the future while her grandfather searches for the wisdom to let go of the past—he applied his great gift to the work of healing and of envisioning the future.
