BroadwayWorld has a first look at The Age of Innocence at Hartford Stage! Check out the video!
The Age of Innocence has been adapted for the stage by Douglas McGrath. Tony Award Winner Doug Hughes directs the Hartford Stage production. Four-time Tony Award winner Boyd Gaines leads the cast, which features Sierra Boggess, Helen Cespedes, and Andrew Veenstra.
The Age of Innocence, which won the Pulitzer Prize in 1921, is one of Edith Wharton's most memorable novels. Set during the Gilded Age in New York, McGrath's powerful and poignant adaptation introduces us to the courtly young gentleman lawyer Newland Archer; his traditional and demure fiancée May; and the free-spirited Countess Ellen Olenska, who has come home from Europe, tainted by scandal. From the moment Newland meets the Countess, he is torn between virtue and desire, and all three are forced to make the agonizing choice, ever old and ever new, between love and honor.
