Official GailSez 2008 Reviewing Plan
I will be covering the complete seasons at my four geographically closest theatres - the Williamstown Theatre Festival, Oldcastle Theatre Company, Barrington Stage Company, and The Theater Barn - plus Shakespeare & Company and the Bakerloo Theatre Project. In addition, I will review "Waiting for Godot" and "Eleanor: Her Secret Journey" at the BTF, and "Phantom" at the Mac-Haydn.

READ ALL ABOUT IT: There are a whole bunch of FREE productions on offer in the region this Summer.

SEE GREAT THEATRE FOR LESS: The 1/2 TIX booths are open again. Larry Murray at Berkshire Fine Arts has more ideas on how to Save Money on Theatre Tickets in the Berkshires, and stay tuned to GailSez for news of other regional bargains.
