Audience Guide: Heroes
Heroes was translated by Tom Stoppard from the play Le Vent des Peupliers by Gérald Sibleyras. The French title translated into English is The Wind in the Poplars which was deemed too similar to The Wind in the Willows, a classic children’s book. Thus, the title Heroes was chosen, with a comment from Stoppard saying, “To tell you the truth, if Charles Wood hadn't written a play called Veterans [in 1972], we would have called it that."
