The Country House at Ohio Wesleyan University

Inspired by Chekhov’s pastoral comedies, The Country House follows Anna Patterson, the matriarch of a brood of famous and longing-to-be-famous artists who have gathered at their Berkshires summerhouse during the Williamstown Theatre Festival. When the weekend takes an unexpected turn, the group is forced to improvise—inciting a series of jealousies, romantic outbursts and passionate soul-searching.
