Established in 1965 at the start of the regional theatre movement, Long Wharf Theatre was born on the notion that New Haven deserves an active arts culture that is locally created. Our founders shared the dream of starting a professional theatre company in Connecticut, built with the aid of community leaders and patrons of the arts. We are a theatre of international renown, recognized for a historic commitment to commissioning, developing, and producing new work.
Mr. Nelson Lee👑👑👑👑👑 thank you for your Outstanding Performance in the movie Civil WAR. Looking forward to seeing more movies from you my Asian Brother 🩸💪
Didi I would like to meet you. To promote My Yacht in Fort Lauterdale. Like in the movie Contact...Want to go for a ride? I am 64 and not getting any younger.😎
I just saw this production in our local theatre and it was the first time I didn't clap as a member of this audience. Romance did not come across at all. Con man did. Even at the end, I was convinced this relationship would be the worst decision Eleanor ever made. There was no excuse for Abel to use money that did not belong to him. He could have returned to Eleanor or put 50 cents into a payphone or borrowed a phone to call her, let alone tell her he was married with a step-daughter with a step-granddaughter to begin with! The taking of liberties to cash both checks without permission should have been foreshadowing for Eleanor that Grace's warnings were spot-on about the drifter. His responsibility seemed quite temporary. What a terrible story and ending for Matthew Barber to tell the audience what they wanted to hear - that they will live happily ever after. No, they won't and that shouldn't be extrapolated from the ending just because Eleanor forgave Abel. I see a dismal future of Abel sifting away Eleanor's retirement funds during multiple conflicts, controversial only because Abel will try to sweet-talk his way out of them, until Abel does, in fact, disappear one day with an eye on another lonely lady with money to dispose. Any audience of reason should not consider the play's ending a good one!

I'm here after just reading the script of "The Killing of Sister George." Obviously, I'm a cisgender male so I would never be cast in a show like this, but I found the story interesting although not exactly a flattering portrayal of 1960s lesbianism (it's only implied in the play, I know). A little more than a decade later, I wish they had done a filmed recording of this production for those unaware and unable to see this production during the time it ran. Stage and theatre are a dying, struggling art form right now as it is, so making it more accessible like recording a performance and making it available to those that would've wanted to see it but couldn't at the time due to location would be beneficial.
Thank You! I was thrilled to be part of the intimate audience of your portrayal in The Year of Magical Thinking in New Haven. Bravo to you and The Long Wharf Theatre. Will be sure to contribute.
WTF - you just look like trans or old times pretty boy... call you ~"they" fuck off you got a dick as anatomy - you a bloke just a fucking odd looking one.
Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic. Female creativity at its peak- rewording other people's songs and writing self-referential content. Derivative Laziness in the first case and self absorbed shallow immaturity in the second. Just pathetic
I bought a copy of the script from Samuel French and read it. I contacted my college classmate and found out that the author is his nephew. Good play. American Jews don’t have it easy.
