Thank you Joanne & Paul Newman for your vision! This playhouse brings to the area some great talent! And the renovated facilitiy is gorgeous!!!! Ticket prices could be more affordable, but hey - it's Westport and you don't need to get to NYC to enjoy decent theater!

I came here on several field trips in 3rd grade so the date would be long ago, but I always had a great time! The plays were phenomenal, but since I was only 8 years old, I didn't realize how costly it was!

We have been coming here for years! They have great shows, children shows and a opportunities for those interested in performance to intern. It has recently been update and is extremely nice. Joanne woodward is very involved with this theatre. It has some excellent shows is has a small cozy atmosphere.

Beyond community theater. These folks work hard to present a good show. Talent behind the scenes here keeps a high level of professional performance before the audience. Crowd trends older.

We love the Country Playhouse for everything from children's programs to plays to readings (of note, a recent Jayne Atkinson/Miche Gill playreading extraordinaire). The building was recently renovated and is simply gorgeous! Historic photos of performances past are really cool to view. Check out The Dressing Room Restaurant for pre- or post-show drinks, food, and music. You may just run... More
