Madison Ferris, Danny Gomez & More to Star in the World Premiere of ALL OF ME at Barrington Stage Company

Barrington Stage Company has announced casting for the world premiere of Burman New Play Award winner All of Me on the Boyd-Quinson Stage September 21 - October 9, 2022. Written by Laura Winters, All of Me is directed by Ashley Brooke Monroe (Assistant Director for Broadway's Indecent; resident director for Hamilton's first national tour).

All of Me will feature Madison Ferris (Broadway's 2017 The Glass Menagerie revival) as Lucy, Danny Gomez (NBC's "New Amsterdam") as Alfonso, Alexandra Seal (Showtime's "Escape at Dannemora") as Jackie, Leah Hocking (Billy Elliot on Broadway) as Connie, Maggie Bofill (Between Riverside and Crazy Off-Broadway) as Elena and Jack Fellows (One Man, Two Guvnors at St. Louis Rep) as Moose.

Boy meets girl. Boy uses wheelchair, girl uses scooter. Boy and girl use text-to-speech technology to connect to each other and the world around them. Love is holding them together even when the people in their lives want to pull them apart. It's a romantic coming-of-age story that hasn't been seen before. All of Me is a hilarious and candid portrayal of disability and class in present-day America.

The production will feature scenic design by Brian Prather (BSC's Eleanor), costume design by Sarah LeFeber (BSC debut), lighting design by Miriam Crowe (Clybourne Park on Broadway), and sound design by Matt Otto (A Patron of the Arts Off-Broadway). Playwright Laura Winters won the Burman New Play Award for this work under its former title, Just the Melody. She was also a Burman semi-finalist for her earlier work, Gonzo.

The Boyd-Quinson Stage currently features Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler's exquisite 1973 Tony Award-winning musical, A Little Night Music (now through August 28), choreographed by Robert La Fosse, musically directed by Darren R. Cohen and directed by BSC Founder and Artistic Director Julianne Boyd.

At the Sydelle and Lee Blatt Performing Arts Center, a revival of Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot (August 19-September 4), directed by Joe Calarco (BSC: Sister Sorry; A Doll's House, Part 2; Breaking the Code), will cap off the 2022 St. Germain Stage season.

ABOUT BARRINGTON STAGE COMPANY

Barrington Stage Company (BSC) is an award-winning theatre located in Pittsfield, MA, in the heart of the Berkshires. Co-founded in 1995 by Artistic Director Julianne Boyd, BSC's mission is to produce top-notch, compelling work; to develop new plays and musicals; and to engage our community with vibrant, inclusive educational outreach programs.

BSC attracts over 60,000 patrons annually and has gained national recognition for its superior-quality productions and comprehensive educational programming, including the award-winning Playwright Mentoring Project, the Musical Theatre Conservatory, Youth Theatre, KidsAct! and other initiatives. The company has become integral to the economic revitalization of downtown Pittsfield.

BSC's reputation for excellence began with a smash revival of Cabaret that moved to Boston in 1997 for an extended run. The theatre's prominence grew with the world premiere of The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee by William Finn and Rachel Sheinkin (BSC 2004; Broadway 2005-2008, winner of two Tony Awards). Other notable productions include the world premiere of Christopher Demos-Brown's American Son (BSC 2016; Broadway 2018); Mark St. Germain's Freud's Last Session (BSC 2009; Off-Broadway 2010-2012); Leonard Bernstein, Comden & Green's On the Town (BSC 2013; Broadway 2014, four Tony Award nominations); Stephen Sondheim and George Furth's Company, starring Aaron Tveit (2017); and West Side Story in honor of Leonard Bernstein and Jerome Robbins' centenaries (2018).

BSC develops and commissions new work with two programs: PlayWorks, which supports the creation of new plays, and the Musical Theatre Lab, which develops new musicals. Since 1995, BSC has produced 41 new works, 21 of which have moved to New York and major US regional theatres. Following the industry-wide shut down due to the coronavirus pandemic, BSC was the first Equity theatre in the US to return to live performance with its critically acclaimed production of Harry Clarke, starring BSC Associate Artist Mark H. Dold and directed by Ms. Boyd.

The 2021 season, featuring a series of critically acclaimed indoor and outdoor productions, included Chester Bailey by Joseph Dougherty starring father and son Reed and Ephraim Birney, which won four Berkshire Theatre Awards, including Outstanding Play; Eleanor by Mark St. Germain and starring Tony Award winner Harriet Harris, who received a Berkshire Theatre Award for Outstanding Solo Performance; and the world premiere of A Crossing: A New Musical, created in association with Calpulli Mexican Dance Company, choreographed by Joshua Bergasse and Alberto Lopez and directed by Bergasse, which won eight Berkshire Theatre Awards including Outstanding Production of a Musical.
