Behind every great show is a voice. Actually, many voices. At The Vineyard, we find that the voices of our award-winning shows often have award-worthy anecdotes that few people ever get to hear and we’re tired of keeping them all to ourselves! So, join us and hear the stories behind the stage from the voices who bring it to life.


MONDAY, JUNE 7, 7PM

Join us as Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning playwright EDWARD ALBEE discusses the art and craft of writing with Edward F. Albee Foundation fellow and friend, WILL ENO — whose play MIDDLETOWN will open next fall at The Vineyard and whom The New York Times hailed as “a Samuel Beckett for the Jon Stewart generation.” This final Vineyard Voices event of the season is sure to be an illuminating conversation about life in the theatre that no interested theatregoer should miss.

Moderated by Vineyard Theatre Executive Director, JENNIFER GARVEY-BLACKWELL.
