Maureen Anderman to Star in The Year of Magical Thinking at Westport Country Playhouse

Westport Country Playhouse is set to stage Joan Didion’s award-winning memoir The Year of Magical Thinking, June 12-30. Nicholas Martin will direct.

Like the book, the solo play is based on the author’s actual experience rebuilding her life during the year after her spouse’s death and her capacity to emerge strengthened from even the most shattering of life’s trials.

Maureen Anderman will star as Didion in the production.

The design team will include Alexander Dodge (set design), Philip S. Rosenberg (lighting design), and Drew Levy (sound design).
