One day, a stranger, Arnaud, walks into her life and before long they decide to present him to the world as her long-lost husband. But is it possible that he really is her husband?Inspired by the true story of Martin Guerre, The Return is a gripping play about the mystery of identity, and asks whether we can ever truly know even those we love best.' ... the story is told in a glorious, beautifully-balanced combination of strong, spare dialogue, eloquent movement, and haunting Languedoc song ...'
