The Wharton Salon Presents “Autres Temps…” at The Mount

 

 

The Mount Welcomes the Theatre Group for the Third Consecutive Year

LENOX, MA–For the third consecutive season, The Mount celebrates its partnership with The Wharton Salon, which this summer will present “Autres Temps…,” based on a short story by Edith Wharton, from August 17-28, 2011. Performances will take place at the stable at The Mount from August 17-28 on two weekday evenings (Wednesday and Thursday at 5:30 pm) and on weekends (Saturday at 10:30 am and 3:00 pm, and Sunday at 10:30 am). General admission tickets are $35 each. For tickets and information, visit EdithWharton.org or WhartonSalon.org, or call 800-838-3006. The Mount is located at 2 Plunkett Street in Lenox, Mass. 
Edith Wharton’s 1911 short story about divorce American style, “Autres Temps,” was adapted by Dennis Krausnick with a theatrical twist: instead of the early 20th century, the play is set in 1962. The cast includes real-life mother and daughter Diane Prusha and Rory Hammond playing Mrs. Lidcote and daughter Leila; Corinna May as Susy Suffern; and James Goodwin Rice as Franklin Ide. The play is directed by Catherine Taylor-Williams; costumes are designed by Arthur Oliver.
