“Fifth Of July” Opening

Lanford Wilson
Cakeworks Studio

A smart revival of Fifth of July by Sag Harbor’s own Pulitzer Prize winning playwright Lanford Wilson opened on the Bay Street Stage Saturday July 3. Terry Kinney, a founding member of the Steppenwolf Theatre Company, directed a top notch ensemble in Wilson’s poignantly witty drama that takes place at the Talley Farm over the course of a 4th of July weekend. The tale reunites a group of friends, former activists, who make terms with the disillusionment of what has become of their lives in the aftermath of the Vietnam War. PC
