Adam & Evie,
by Charles Mee
A gorgeous, free-wheeling performance piece for 11 actors about the mysteries of love,with song, dance and a big, big heart. A perfect piece for LRT as it uses unique theatrical intimacy that draws each observer into a more personal relationship to the play.

And
Circle Mirror Transformation
by Pulitzer prize-winner Annie Baker.
This intimate play (Obie Award for Best New Play) imagines a weekly community acting class in Vermont that forever changes the lives of its participants. A beautifully crafted diorama both humorous and heartbreaking in unexpected ways.
"The play is an absolute feast. It traces the lives of a handful of small town Vermont residents who gather each week for an acting class taught at the local community center. By the play's end we seem to see to the very bottom of these souls, and feel how the artificial intimacy of the acting class has shaped their lives in substantial ways" The New York Times

Under Randolyn Zinn's fine tuned direction, the five cast members do a beautiful job of balancing the twin foci of the alarming nature of the murderous plot and their increasingly farcical behavior."

From our audience:
Christopher McCann in Exit the King
"Spirited, adventurous, joyful and serious. Zinn and her entire team have done wonders. How we love them!"
-- Willard Boepple
"This year's production of Exit The King was simply magical. The hallucinogenic scene-scape that Zinn and her team created will stay with us for a long time. Get thee to North Bennington! It is well worth the journey.
–- Brett Aresco & Briana Pozner
Tom Coiner & LIzzie King-Hall in Strindberg's Playing With Fire.
"I suspect that what Living Room Theatre is doing is akin to what the Williamstown Theatre Festival must have been like in its early years."
-– Jonathan Marballi
