Westport Country Playhouse Launches Blog

By:

Concurrent with the production of "The Diary of Anne Frank," Westport Country Playhouse is providing a glimpse behind the scenes on The Playhouse Blog, launched September 9.  Molly Ephraim, who plays Anne Frank, recounts her experiences in rehearsal, in performance and in-between with postings every week through October at http://www.theplayhouseblog.org/

"The Diary of Anne Frank," helmed by award-winning director Gerald Freedman, will play September 28 through October 30, as part of Westport Country Playhouse's 80th Anniversary Season. 
 
Adapted by Wendy Kesselman, from the original stage play by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, "The Diary of Anne Frank" tells the story of two years in one girl's remarkable life.  During the Second World War, Anne Frank and her family go into hiding to escape the Nazis.  Her account of the time spent in a small Amsterdam attic remains among the greatest personal stories from the darkest moment in history, and one of the most compelling coming of age tales ever told.

For more information or ticket purchases, call the box office at (203) 227-4177, or toll-free at 1-888-927-7529, or visit 25 Powers Court, off Route 1, Westport.  Tickets may be purchased online at www.westportplayhouse.org.
