AFTER THE REVOLUTION had its World Premiere at Williamstown Theatre Festival, opening on July 22, 2010 and playing a limited engagement through August 1, 2010.  Variety hailed the play as, "A smart, funny and provocative play.  Written with an extraordinary balance of insight, humor and surprise, it's totally engaging.  This terrific production, featuring a dream ensemble, is guided with an expert hand by helmer Carolyn Cantor.   The cast couldn't be better.  AFTER THE REVOLUTION will have audiences talking not only about the issues it raises, but also its compelling and complex characters and the choices they face."
