Join LNT for the beginning of the play development process with the latest work by Vermont s Jeanne Beckwith - Sam & Jim in Hell - conjuring Irish literary legends Samuel Beckett & James Joyce -on Saint Patrick s Day, March 17th!

The idea for Sam & Jim in Hell came as Jeanne walked along the banks of the River Liffey in Dublin about a year and a half ago. Jeanne saw the Samuel Beckett Bridge, and wondered what Beckett might think about a bridge named in his honor. She thought about how Beckett - and his compatriot James Joyce - had both become Irish Icons in spite of their feeling estranged from the Ireland of their time.

MONTPELIER â Perhaps no story drives home the spirit of Christmas more than Charles Dickensâ âA Christmas Carol: A Ghost Story.â And there isnât a much better storyteller than Vermontâs own Willem Lange.
On Friday, Lange read the tale of the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge and the nocturnal apparitions that helped him discover Christmas, live-streamed from the Lost Nation Theater stage in City Hall Arts Center. Nearly 300 people tuned in to the resident professional theater companyâs first live-streamed production, which remains available online through 10 a.m. Dec. 26.
