Mary-Louise Parker as Bella Baird in

The Sound Inside

2018 Season

WORLD PREMIERE DRAMA
by Adam Rapp
directed by David Cromer

Emmy, Golden Globe, and Tony Award winner Mary-Louise Parker stars in this world premiere play by Pulitzer Prize finalist Adam Rapp, directed by David Cromer.  Bella Baird (Parker) is an accomplished professor at an Ivy League university who prizes her solitude.  But when she faces a challenge she cannot tackle alone, she allies herself with a brilliant and mysterious student, Christopher (Will Hochman).  Intensely intimate and deeply moving, this haunting play probes the question of what one person can do for another.

Jesse Green of The New York Times raves: Adam Rapp’s The Sound Inside is an “astonishing new play” in its world premiere production at Williamstown Theatre Festival!  Under David Cromer’s “masterly direction” and featuring Mary-Louise Parker’s “sensationally controlled performance,” this “thrilling” play “stuns the audience into silence,” and “for its entire 90 minutes you are dying to know what will happen.”  New York Times Critics’ Pick!
