Town Manager Jason Hoch & Superintendent Kim Grady share in this update.

Artistic Director Mandy Greenfield said the shows will go on– on AUDIBLE:
“We will make the season of new work we planned to make. We will create seven new productions with Audible, the world’s largest producer and provider of original spoken-word entertainment and audiobooks, in a format safe to elevate, entertain, transport, reveal, unmask and transform audiences from the comfort of their homes. The stellar group of artists who planned to spend the summer in Williamstown, will deliver—with fearlessness and redoubled passion—on the promise they made to create this work for you. This virus might get to tell us what we cannot do but it does not get to dictate what we can do. The voices of these artists will be heard.”
