“THE WHALES OF AUGUST” FEBRUARY 9
AT SCHENECTADY CIVIC PLAYHOUSE

The Whales of August, by David Berry, and directed by Chris Howard, will be presented as a free staged reading Sunday, February 9, at 2:30 p.m. at the historic Stockade District’s Schenectady Civic Playhouse, 12 So. Church Street, Schenectady. One performance only, it is part of this season’s celebration of the Playhouse’s 86th anniversary.

The Whales of August, an Off-Broadway success, tells the story of two elderly widowed sisters near the end of their lives, spending a summer in a seaside house in Maine. The surroundings cause them to recall their relationship as young women, and the summers they had enjoyed there in the past. The 1987 film version starred Bette Davis and Lillian Gish as the elderly sisters. 

The play features Capital District and frequent Schenectady Civic Players actors Melissa Putterman-Hoffmann, Joanne Westervelt, Robert L. Hegeman, Sally Farrell, and Gary Hoffmann.
