Westport Country Playhouse opened its 90th season with a streamed production of Michael Gotch s Tiny House, about a couple who leave the chaos of the world to live in the woods and off the grid in a tiny, ecofriendly house.
Nick (Denver Milord) and Sam (Sara Bues) have invited her mother Billie (Elizabeth Heflin) and uncle Larry (Lee E. Ernst) and their neighbors Win (Stephen Pelinski) and Carol (Kathleen Pirkl-Tague) for the Fourth of July weekend. It s a hodge-podge of personalities. Nick has an attitude of superiority about their lifestyle. Sam is a blogger who is trying to run away from her notorious father. Billie is the former wife of a man convicted of a Ponzi scheme. Larry, her former brother-in-law, is a nerdy high school science teacher. Win and Carol are former Renaissance Faire players who can t give up their hippie lifestyle. Also in the play is Bernard (Hassan El-Amin), a neighbor who hunts and proclaims doom.
