Reading of Another Part of the Forest
Directed by Amelia Acosta Powell
Friday, February 3 at 8:00 p.m.
In the Arlene and Robert Kogod Cradle
In this biting prequel to The Little Foxes, Hellman exposes the history of the Hubbard family. Patriarch Marcus Hubbard is a self-made man who went from rags to riches during the Civil War through sheer exploitation and manipulation of his fellow man. He treats his wife and two sons with nearly as little respect as his laborers, pitting them against each other. He favors his daughter, Regina, but perhaps their relationship is even a little too close. Not unlike The Little Foxes, no one but the servants come out of the story untarnished by illegal, immoral or unethical behaviors. Under the direction of Arena Stage Artistic Associate and Casting Director Amelia Acosta Powell, the reading features Shayna Blass, Laura C. Harris, Susan Rome, Michael Russotto and Tom Wiggin.
