The Guthrie Celebrates Christopher Hampton

Following its celebration of American playwright Tony Kushner, the Guthrie lauds British playwright Christopher Hampton. We’ll see the world premiere of Appomattox, a Guthrie-commissioned work encompassing the Civil War and Civil Rights eras; Tales from Hollywood, the story of German émigrés such as Bertolt Brecht and Thomas Mann who came to California to escape the Nazis; and Embers, based on a novel by Hungarian writer Sándor Márai.

Sept. 15–Nov. 11, Guthrie Theater, guthrietheater.org
