the plays

Ivanov

Barefoot in the Park

by Neil Simon

Hilarious, sweet and ultimately moving, Barefoot in the Park tells the story of two newlyweds: Paul, a buttoned-down lawyer, and Corie, his free-spirited wife, as they learn to love each other for who they are. From one of the funniest, most beloved playwrights of his generation, Barefoot in the Park is romantic delight not to be missed.

by Tennessee Williams directed by Brian Mertes

Perhaps one of the greatest American plays ever written, this classic from the brilliant Tennessee Williams is a dazzling, poetic masterpiece about longing, unfulfilled dreams and the power of memory.

by Anton Chekhov translated by Curt Columbus directed by Brian McEleney World Premiere!

In this fascinating early work by Anton Chekhov, we see the union of humor and pathos that would become his trademark. In a sparkling “I used to work a lot and think new translation by Curt a lot, and I never felt tired.

Columbus (who’s Chekhov translations have been Now, I do nothing, I think nothing, and I’m exhausted.” proclaimed by Variety as “savvy, clear, fair-minded and right-headed”) and helmed by Brian McEleney (The Grapes of Wrath), Trinity Rep proudly opens it’s 51st season with a fresh new take on a play whose title character is often referred to as “the comic Russian Hamlet.” (The Guardian)

The Glass Menagerie

A Flea in Her Ear

by Georges Feydeau

Middletown

by Will Eno directed by Curt Columbus

“Middletown. Population: stable; elevation: same. The main street is called Main Street. The side streets are named after trees. Things are fairly predictable. People come, people go. Crying, by the way, in both directions.”

This is how we are introduced to the eponymous town in Will Eno’s bittersweet gem, which has universally been hailed as one of the best plays of the past few years. “Middletown glimmers from start to finish with tart, funny, gorgeous little comments on big things: the need for love and forgiveness, the search for meaning in life, the long, lonely ache of disappointment.” (The New York Times) top left & right: Stephen Thorne, Anne Scurria & Nikki Massoud in The Grapes of Wrath. center: Mia Ellis & Joe Wilson, Jr. in Intimate Apparel. bottom left & right: Brian McEleney, Janice Duclos, Tangela Large & Phyllis Kay in Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike; Charlie Thurston & Rebecca Gibel in Social Creatures.

Slamming doors. Mistaken identities. Rendezvous gone awry. When the wife of an insurance magnate thinks her husband is cheating on her, she decides to catch him in the act… only to turn their world riotously upside down. Prepare to be delighted by this wildly funny French “My husband is deceiving me… farce. “Where does and I’ve decided to expose the one begin in praising whole thing!”

Feydeau? Perhaps with the thrift and beauty of his plotting…the result is a heartlessly funny evening of whirlwind insanity.” (The Guardian)

Melancholy Play: a new chamber piece

by Sarah Ruhl with music by Todd Almond World Premiere!

M e e t T i l l y. S h e ’s depressed. She’s so fantastically, alluringly depressed, in fact, that everyone can’t help falling in love with her, including her therapist and her bank teller.

But what happens when their love actually makes Tilly… happy? Trinity Rep is proud to premiere this new musical comedy from Sarah Ruhl, with beautiful music by Todd Almond.

Plays subject to change

“Do you ever have the feeling, when you wake up in the morning, that you’re in love but you don’t know with what?”
