Ok, am I the only one on this board in love with the Williamstown Summer Theater Festival?

So yeah, this is pretty much a love thread/discussion for Williamstown Theater Festival. So knock yourself out.

And sorry that is post sounds sort of strange, but I actually had no clue what to write.

I have always wanted to go and I've never had the opportunity. I have worked with costumers who worked here and I have friends who have a summer home here just so they can attend the festival.

One day..... (maybe in the next life...)

Oh you definately should try to go soon. I've gone to three different ones, I went to one in like 2002 or 2003(i'm not sure exactly when). It had Lauren Graham in it. It made me happy. Then I went in 2004 to the Cabaret & Main. It was absolutely spectacular with performances from Terrance Mann, James Naughton, Sara Ramirez, David Hyde Pierce, Janine LaManna and so many more. And I went last year to a play(it's the one Hello, Dolly is based on, but I can't remember the name) with Michael McKean, it was very good.

And they remodeled the theater, it's very nice!

and if you go, Pappa Charlie's is the place to eat!

HELLO, DOLLY! is based on Thornton Wilder's farce called THE MATCHMAKER.

Obviously the production you saw made such a vivid impression on you that you've forgotten its title.

I saw, and flipped out, just a tad, ok, well a little more than a tad, but oh well.

I'm really anxious to see the cast lists! and I think I'm going to try to see Anything Goes, and I'm not sure if I'll get to see anything else, but still, I think I'd be happy just seeing one of them.

I've never been to Barrington Stage and Berkshire Theater Festival, though my dad and I were looking at the shows and were trying to actually go this year(we've looked a couple of other years, but never had the time).
