The bold new comedy, ADMISSIONS, written by Joshua Harmon (Bad Jews), has "the force of a bulldozer and the precision of a scalpel' (Metro) and this "Sharp. Thoughtful" (Evening Standard) play will leave the audience questioning the status quo," is the opening production of Square One Theatre's 30th Anniversary Season. The first performance is scheduled on Thursday, November 7 at 7pm and continues on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays through Sunday, March 17 (2019). Stratford Academy located at 719 Birdseye Street in Stratford, Connecticut.
Winner of the New York Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards for Best Play, this will be the Connecticut premiere of Admissions, which concerns Sherri Rosen-Mason, who heads the admissions department of a New England prep school, fighting to diversify its student body. Alongside her husband, the school's Headmaster, they've largely succeeded in bringing a stodgy institution into the twenty-first century. But when their only son sets his sights on an Ivy League university, personal ambition collides with progressive values, with convulsive results.
Directed by Tom Holehan (Stratford), Admissions features Lucy Babbitt and newcomer Robert Thomas Halliwell (Stratford), plus Ruth Anne Baumgartner (Fairfield). Pat Leo (Monroe) and Janet Rathert (New Canaan).
