Patricia Clarkson and John Benjamin Hickey will soon lead a reading of SCOTT AND ZELDA by Kay Cattarulla at Williamstown Theatre Festival. The event, which will be directed by Maria Tucci, will take place on July 1 at 7:30PM.
New York in the Jazz Age, glamorous life on the Riviera, competing ambitions, true love -what didn't go into the Fitzgeralds' legendary marriage? Hear the story in their own words - drawn from novels, including Gatsby and Tender Is the Night, alongside commentary from intimates like Ernest Hemingway and others. Their edgy union, challenged by traumatic breakdowns and critical failures, found its best expression in their final letters, which are among the most moving ever written. A powerhouse evening with two WTF greats.
