  2. Free Showing of 'MacBeth' in New Haven's Edgerton Park

    As local theater companies scramble to prepare their fall season of shows, we find this last week of summer to be an ideal time to check out a play across county lines, like Elm Shakespeare's production of <em>MacBeth</em>, outdoors in New Haven's Edgerton Park where the &quot;Great Birnam wood" doesn't seem so far off. Post-Labor-Day, Fairfield County stages will be heating up en masse, but just for this week let's allow our actors and production teams to have a relaxing, long weekend. (Unless you still haven't seen <em>Harbor </em>at Westport Country Playhouse.) <strong></strong>

  3. Harbor Playing at Westport Country Playhouse Through Sept. 15

    <em>Harbor </em>opens this Tuesday at Westport Country Playhouse, a comedy about a dysfunctional but loving family living in Sag Harbor. Ted and Kevin have been together for ten years without incident, but Kevin's troublemaking sister Donna and her 15-year-old daughter arrive unannounced and tensions immediately begin to brew. What results is a biting, yet touching, analysis of the ever-changing meaning of family. <strong></strong>

  5. Westport Country Playhouse Updates the 350-Year Old 'Tartuffe' to the Present Day

    <em>Tartuffe</em> is almost 350 years old, but the Westport Country Playhouse's production updates the comedy (by Moliere) to the present day. Orgon believes Tartuffe to be a most saintly man, but Orgon's family isn't convinced. Orgon needs to see the truth before he loses everything to a con artist. It's one of those stories that could be just as true today as it was centuries ago, and it should resonate with audiences as such.
