Wilder Sins

Wilder Sins

Undercroft Theatre
900 Massachusetts Ave. NW Washington

Thornton Wilder, whose insight and compassion in Our Town and The Skin of Our Teeth made him one of America’s most beloved playwrights, turned late in life to a series of works that are as extraordinary as his large-scale masterpieces. In portraits of ordinary people whose failings affect themselves and those around them, Wilder, by turns comic and serious, never fails to surprise his audience with the cosmic implications of the commonplace. Pride, Sloth, Wrath, and Avarice will take the stage, and their cousins will be offered during the run as a reading.
