Walnut Street Theatre continues its landmark 204th season with the Philadelphia premiere of Broadway's sensational new play GOOD PEOPLE. Directed by Walnut's Artistic Producing Director Bernard Havard, this smart, funny production begins previews on March 12th, opens on March 20th and runs through April 28th on the Walnut's Mainstage.

GOOD PEOPLE takes audiences to Southie, a Boston neighborhood where a night on the town means a few rounds of bingo, where this month's paycheck covers last month's bills and where Margie Walsh has just been let go from yet another job. Facing eviction and scrambling to catch a break, Margie thinks an old fling who made it out of Southie might be her ticket to a fresh new start. But is this apparently self-made man secure enough to face his humble beginnings? Margie is about to risk what little she has left to find out.

Written by playwright David Lindsay-Abaire, GOOD PEOPLE premiered on Broadway at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre in February, 2011. The production received a Tony nomination for Best Play and Frances McDormand won the Tony Award for Outstanding Actress in a Play for her portrayal of Margie. The play was also awarded the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award for Best Play of the 2010-2011 Season. The Walnut's production of GOOD PEOPLE is produced in association with Fulton Theatre in Lancaster, PA.
