Theatre: A Love Story
Williams College '62 Center for Theatre and DanceTheatre: A Love Story is an exuberant live performance that invites the audience and the actors to reflect, question and embrace the beauty and horror of our world. What was once theater’s impact on our humanity? What have we done to destroy the simple ways of telling stories? Why would we rather embrace the clean odorless shiny sticky bodiless ghost of capitalism? What’s left for all of us to hold onto, to believe? This play is not a play. It is a journey that we are all a part of to dismantle our own hypocrisy and celebrate our desire for love.
This play was originally produced by Know Theatre of Cincinnati.
Theatre: A Love Story is produced by special arrangement with the Playwright and Elaine Devlin Literary, Inc., 115 Broadway, 12th floor, NY, NY 10010.$3 -

Danny Simmons: Paint Where It Ain’t
Williams College '62 Center for Theatre and DanceArtist, author, and poet Danny Simmons lends his magnificent work for a month-long viewing here in Williamstown, MA. These works were recently shown to great acclaim at the Houston Museum of African American Culture and the Hudson Guild in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City.
Some of the works in this show were created while at home during the stay-at-home orders of the COVID pandemic, he threw himself fully into his studio practice to create beauty and hope during uncertain times. His work was described as neo-African abstract expressionism and much of the work has African textiles and influences. The New York Times stated that Simmons “injects freshness” into his abstract works, and that they are “meticulously rendered and decoratively impressive.”
Today, his works appear in prominent locations around the world, including the Brooklyn Academy of Music, Brooklyn Museum, Chase Manhattan Bank, Deutsche Bank, Schomburg Center for Black Culture, Smithsonian Museums, and the United Nations. He has shown work internationally in countries including France, the Netherlands, and Ghana.
