The Hampton Theatre Company's 31st season will open with An Inspector Calls" on October 22 at Quogue Community Hall. The classic British thriller from playwright J.B. Priestley follows a mysterious police inspector who upends the lives of a prosperous family implicated in the death of a young woman.
Come winter, the theater troupe will stage "Dead Accounts" in January, a timely new comedy by Theresa Rebeck that takes on greed and skewed ideas about morality when a quirky financier does a little too well in New York and comes home to surprise his family in the heartland.
In March, Neil Simon's Pulitzer Prize- and Tony Award-winning "Lost in Yonkers" will stage. The tender comedy follows the coming-of-age story of two young boys in a zany family of colorful characters circa-1942.
"Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike" by Christopher Durang will close out the season in June. The Drama Desk- and Tony Award-winning comedy is playwright Christopher Durang's signature screwball take on Anton Chekhov and his keen insights into the absurdities and agonies of 21st-century life.
