The new Samuel D. Hunter play Grangeville opened February 24 at the Pershing Square Signature Center, produced by Signature Theatre. Read what critics have to say below.
The two hander, starring Paul Sparks and Brian J. Smith, is set in a small town in Idaho. It follows two half-brothers who tentatively reconnect over the care of their ailing mother. Sparks plays the older Jerry, who still lives in Grangeville, while Smith plays Arnold, an artist now living in Rotterdam, drawn back into his past. Grangeville runs until March 23.
