Hapgood October 27, 2005

We begin our season reuniting favorites. Kathleen Akerley, artistic director of Longacre Lea Productions, who directed WSC's 2004 production of Jumpers, directs our fourth foray into the work of Tom Stoppard. Hapgood, written in 1988, is an end-of-the-Cold War thriller that cooks up espionage, physics, and farce in a typically complex and scintillating Stoppardian souffle. WSC company member Jenifer Deal is Hapgood, leading the cast with fellow company member Hugh T. Owen.
