Williamstown Theatre Festival
1000 Main St, Williamstown, MA 01267-0517
Every day, Gail (Deirdre O’Connell) and the regular members of her early morning group set up for their meeting in the exact same way: Nicole (Midori Francis) makes the coffee, Gail arranges the chairs, and Ron (Arnie Burton) complains. As they forge a path toward sobriety and well-being, they come to rely on the routine and each other.

But when Gail’s estranged granddaughter (Cassie Beck)reopens old wounds, Gail knows it will take more than coffee, chairs, and companionship to keep her life from falling apart. 

Trip Cullman
 directs Adam Bock’s world premiere play, which examines how to truly make amends on the road to recovery.
