Day 1

The cast gathers at playwright Dorothy Lyman's Manhattan apartment to read through the script. The evening felt like a visit home as the cast sat around Lyman's dining table and discussed the play. Just as the sun set Dorothy and director, Katie McHugh, surprised the cast with a home cooked meal of farm fresh eggs, wild salad, and corn muffins. Everyone involved would agree it was a fantastic way to kickstart the journey of "In the Bleak Midwinter."
