The Way of the World
Written by Theresa Rebeck
Directed by Theresa Rebeck
Dorset Theatre Festival, July & August 2016
“Rebeck’s ‘The Way of the World’ is a biting and hilarious satire of the superwealthy — but it’s a lot more than that.” -Jim Lowe, Rutland Herald
“With Theresa writing and directing, and an absolute rock star cast and crew, ‘The Way of the World’ is going to be our ‘buzz’ show for the summer,” Janis said with palpable excitement in her voice. “It’s smart, sexy, edgy and funny.” -Dina Janis, Dorset Theatre Festival artistic director, as quoted in the Berkshire Eagle The Way of the World preview
“Dorset Theatre Festival’s world premiere of Theresa Rebeck’s The Way of the World hits a veritable stage jackpot. This is theater at its finest and funniest. Eight talented actors, a smart and sexy script, insightful direction, and imaginative design all combine for an evening of great wit and physical comedy.” -SEVEN DAYS VERMONT
“Ridiculously funny, with just a touch of romance… A biting and hilarious satire of the super-wealthy – but it’s a lot more than that. These characters crystallize the doubts and emotions that propel all of us.” -BARRE MONTPELIER TIMES ARGUS
“Very funny in a deeply intelligent way, and offers up excellent acting in a feast-of-the-senses setting. For a new play that Ms. Rebeck will continue to develop, that’s a superb launching point, and not to be missed by those who want to laugh, and love.” -THE MANCHESTER JOURNAL
