Westport Playhouse Virtual Production of Tiny House Opens June 29 Written by Pat Blaufuss
Westport, CT - Westport Country Playhouse will open its all-virtual 2021 production season with the regional premiere of “Tiny House,” a timely new comedy about downsizing, going green, escaping urban life, and fresh starts, written by Michael Gotch, and directed by Mark Lamos, Playhouse artistic director. The production will stream on demand from Tuesday, June 29 through Sunday, July 18. Exactly 90 years ago on June 29, 1931, the Playhouse staged the first production in its history of over 800 plays.
In “Tiny House,” fireworks fly when family, friends, and quirky neighbors come together for a Fourth of July barbecue at the off-the-grid, isolated mountain paradise of a young, urban couple.

As one University of Delaware community, we must challenge ourselves every day

“People are in their own corners, their own world,” said writer-director El-Amin when asked why it is so difficult for people to talk about race. “I think music and humor is a way to get in.
