2008 Season



The Autumn Garden
by Lillian Hellman

Directed by Artistic Director
Nathaniel Swift

Fall 2008

First produced in 1951, The Autumn Garden is Hellman's most mature and emotionally honest play, with a rich cast of imperfect yet noble characters struggling to find comfort amidst the simple tragedy of being human. In this introspective and rarely produced play, old friends gather in a summer home to rediscover connections, rekindle lost relationships, and find peace - only to find that they can't escape from the choices of their past. Newly appointed and Jeff Award winning Artistic Director Nathaniel Swift returns to direct Hellman's masterpiece!
