| Not overly excited for these performances/productions. Do they have a new Artistic Director? Saw some productions last year at Williamstown, and they were also just okay, IMHO. Call me superficial or a lover of star power, yet they have had some name talent in recent years: Mary Louise Parker, Chita Rivera, Bradley Cooper-did not see that last year and not seeing it this year (or are they holding back). On the other hand, Barrington Stage (tickets just went on sale today) has some interesting productions to consider this summer. | |

| I'm curious about why they're doing so few productions this summer. It wasn't that long ago that they were doing 8 or 10 full productions. Is this WTF in Covid-Recovery mode? | |

| Really? I'd have thought it'd been obvious based on the subject line of the thread. | |

| ... but everything this summer will be in the smaller Nikos Stage, nothing at the main stage. Weird. | |

| Is that confirmed, or is it possible this is just a preliminary announcement and there is another announcement to come? | |

| I know at least one of the festivals would typically announce the summer in stages...I can't say for sure if that was WTF's usual way or not. | |

| Very bizarre indeed. Every other live performance venue in Western MA is back in full throttle this summer. A big yawn to Williamstown '22. After experiencing wince-inducing Alien/Nation last year, I am going to carefully evaluate their productions. | |

| I don't think it's much of a surprise. Have you followed Mandy Greenfield's resignation, etc? Check out the LA Times coverage. In brief, they are doing a short season so that the level of staffing and the production demands align, as a result of complaints from staff. At least that is the stated reasoning. | |
