  • SYNOPSIS

    The Country House transports Chekhov from Russia to a Berkshire summerhouse. The play focuses on Anna Patterson, the matriarch of a family of famous and hoping-to-be-famous creative artists. The family has gathered during the Williamstown Theatre Festival to enjoy a simple weekend. But when the unexpected occurs, the entire troupe is forced to improvise as passionate soul-searching, romantic interludes, and slowly boiling jealousies occupy an unpredictable summer weekend.
