Enjoyed different performances in 2012! Great seating. Performances are awesome. Some shows are sold out in advance due to high demand, I would suggest purchasing bundle tickets in advance, at least 20% off when you buy bundle tickets. Great offerings in cute town, Williamstown!

The acting is always superb, regardless of who's in the cast; productions often feature really big stars of the stage, with major film credits, because Williamstown is conveniently close to NYC, in the beautiful Berkshires, where performers and audience members alike...
