New HTC Season
The Hampton Theatre Company in Quogue has announced its 2016-2017 schedule, which will launch in timely fashion on Oct. 20, less than three weeks before Election Day, with David Mamet’s 2008 Oval Office satire, ”November,” a peek at one day in the life of an egomaniacal and beleaguered president seeing reelection.
Subsequent productions will include “4,000 Miles,” Amy Herzog’s play about the unlikely relationship between a 91-year-old leftist and her questing grandson; Bernard Slade’s whodunit “An Act of the Imagination,” a brew of cunning, duplicity, and deceit, and Michael Frayn’s “Alarms and Excursions,” a collection of comedies of embarrassment.
For the first time, the theater is adding Saturday matinees to its performance schedule and offering discount tickets to theatergoers under 35, for $15. More information is available at hamptontheatre.org.
