Review: ESTATE SALE at Barrington Stage Company
by Marc Savitt - Jul 7, 2026

I often look or ask for the take away message in a performance.  I feel this is not that kind of a play. ESTATE SALE is an unusual, interesting presentation that makes the viewer think - which (IMHO) is typically, the best kind of theatrical experience.  Playwright Keelay Gipson says 'grief may feel like a blessing and a curse, it alternates between joy and pain.  Those two poles of experience remind me that life is a collection of contradictions.  Grief can both the devastation of loss and the celebration of life.'
