WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Set not far from the Festival's Berkshire home in the fictional Grover's Corners, New Hampshire, Wilder's masterpiece finds the beautiful in the mundane lives of people in a small town. Martin brings together a family of Williamstown favorites, including Becky Ann Baker (All My Sons, Assassins) and Dylan Baker (God of Carnage, Mauritius, Revolutionary Road), Jessica Hecht (A View from the Bridge, After the Fall), Campbell Scott (The Spanish Prisoner, Roger Dodger, Singles), and John Rubenstein (Tony Award- Children of a Lesser God, Love Letters) as the local town-folk whose hopes and memories are chronicled in America's most beloved play.
