In one of the most exciting theater events of the current season, The Year of Magical Thinking, the stage adaptation of Joan Didion's bestselling memoir, has its Connecticut premiere at TheaterWorks.

TheaterWorks presents acclaimed actor Annalee Jefferies in the Connecticut premiere of The Year of Magical Thinking, the stage adaptation of Joan Didion's bestselling memoir of the same name. In this Broadway hit, audiences journey back over the year when Didion abruptly lost her husband, Hartford native John Gregory Dunne, and their beloved daughter Quintana Roo. Applying her fiercely logical brain to a situation that defied logic, Didion's words lead us on a quiet exploration of that 'magical year' when grief came to call and hope was around the corner. The production, featuring area favorite Annalee Jefferies (Hartford Stage's A Streetcar Named Desire and 2003 Connecticut Critics Circle Award winner for The Night of the Iguana), is directed by TheaterWorks' artistic director, Steve Campo.
