Williamstown Theatre Festival has announced additional casting for its 2014 season.

On the Main Stage, Diana DiMarzio, Rick Holmes, and Timothy Shew join the WTF Resident Company and will appear in both June Moon and The Visit. Rachel Napoleon and Jason Bowen have also been announced to join the cast of June Moon. Additionally, Jason Danieley will replace the previously announced Howard McGillin in Kander and Ebb's The Visit (July 31–August 17). The Visit's cast will also feature Christopher Newcomer, Tom Nelis, and Aaron Ramey joining the previously announced Chita Rivera, Roger Rees, and company. Also on the Main Stage, Emmy Award-nominee Anna Chlumsky, and Tony Award nominee Douglas Sills will appear in Living on Love (July 16–July 26).

On Williamstown's Nikos Stage, the cast of A Great Wilderness (July 9–20) will now include Mia Barron, Jeffrey DeMunn (The Walking Dead), Mia Dillon, Kevin Geer, and Tasha Lawrence. Christopher Abbott (Girls) has been cast opposite Chris Pine in Fool for Love (July 24–August 2). Because of scheduling conflicts, Lauren Ambrose has exited the Fool for Love company.

As previously announced, the productions will be overseen by current producer Stephen M. Kaus, in place of WTF's recently departed artistic director Jenny Gersten, who curated the upcoming season. Manhattan Theatre Club's current artistic producer, Mandy Greenfield, will take over as WTF artistic director in September.
