Photo Flash: Music Theatre of Connecticut MainStage Presents DOUBT

Music Theatre of Connecticut MainStage presents "Doubt" a Parable by John Patrick Shanley. This production marks the Fairfield County professional debut of one of the most celebrated plays of our generation. Performances are April 16-25, 2010 and take place at the Music Theatre of Connecticut Studio Theatre in Westport, CT.

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Best Drama and the Tony Award for Best Play, John Patrick Shanley's "Doubt" has been hailed as the most compelling and magnificently crafted drama in years. Set against the backdrop of a Bronx Catholic school in 1964, "Doubt" is the story of a strong-minded woman faced with a difficult decision. Should she voice concerns about one of her male colleagues ... even if she's not entirely certain of the truth? "Doubt" ran on Broadway for two years and was made into a motion picture, starring Meryl Streep, which was nominated for five Academy Awards.

"Doubt" is directed by Kevin Connors, MTC MainStage Executive Artistic Director and co-founder of Music Theatre of Connecticut. Scenic design and stage management by David Heuvelman, lighting design by Graham Kindred and costume design by Diane Vanderkroef. The production is generously sponsored by Shoff Darby Insurance and TD Bank.

Performances take place April 16-25, 2010, Fridays at 8pm, Saturdays at 4pm & 8pm and Sundays at 3pm. Tickets are $40 for adults, $20 for seniors and students, and reservations are suggested.
