Alcott's four sisters in the 2005 Broadway musical, with Jo's writing ambition driving the book rather than the marriages. Allan Knee wrote the book, Jason Howland the music and Mindi Dickstein the lyrics. Doug Hodge directs for the Footlighters, with Chris Holownia as music director.
Fri Jan 29 – Sun Feb 14
Molière's last play, and the one he was performing when he collapsed on stage: a hypochondriac appalled in equal measure by his imagined illnesses and his real medical bills decides to marry his daughter to a doctor and secure free treatment for life. The maid takes the scheme apart, and the doctors with it.
Fri May 7 – Sun May 23
Donald Margulies's play gathers a family of actors at their Berkshires summer house during the Williamstown Theatre Festival, a year after the death of the daughter who held them together. A weekend goes wrong, and the jealousies they perform professionally get turned on each other. Margulies won the Pulitzer for Dinner with Friends.
