A. R. Gurney to Appear at Westport Country Playhouse May 31

Westport Country Playhouse will present A Conversation with A. R. Gurney, following the Sunday, May 31, matinee performance of the playwright’s Children, which runs May 26-June 13.

The event is part of The Playhouse Sunday Symposium program, which provides the audience with guest speakers’ in-depth insights and observations about the production, followed by an interactive dialogue. David Kennedy will moderate.

The play focuses on a man’s return to his family’s summer home, and stars Judith Light, Katie Finneran, James Waterston, and Mary Bacon. Gurney’s many other plays include The Dining Room, Sylvia, and The Cocktail Hour.

The symposium is free and open to all, including those who attend a performance of Children at another time.
