Playwrights cross the country to write in local coffee shops. Tony award-winning actors join in the July 4 celebration — Gwyneth Paltrow, Blythe Danner, Lewis Black, Justin Long and Sam Rockwell are regulars. For decades the Northern Berkshires has fostered live theatre.

In summer, the Williamstown Theatre Festival brings stars to town. Alongside mainstage plays, the actors also sing at late night cabarets and launch edgy premieres that often appear off-Broadway.
Performances are presented year-round at local colleges and museums. Mass MoCA and Williams College host rare glimpses of new work. Students at Williams and MCLA explore new works and new ideas, and the Clark Art Institute screens the London National Theatre in HD.
Close by, live theater expands. Barrington Stage Company and Berkshire Theatre Group in Pittsfield host national performers, and Shakespeare & Co. in Lenox and Oldcastle Theatre in Bennington have staged comedies and dramas for decades.
