The Good Doctor By Neil Simon/ Anton Chekhov at Birmingham Festival Theatre

A combination of Neil Simon and Chekhov, The Good Doctor, a comedy with music, is, by turns, charming, hilarious, sad, and touching. It centers around a writer, who speaks to the audience and shares his writing with them, throughout one day. He presents them with a plethora of scenes: some are from his childhood, others are his family and friends, and still others are his own life experiences. The audience meets a variety of characters, all of whom are immediately relatable and strikingly human. Directed by Catherine Champion.

*Note: There will be no shows on Thanksgiving and that weekend. Shows resume on 11/29.
