A Chekhovian comedy from Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Lillian Hellman about the sad and funny frailties of human existence. As the summer of 1949 draws to a close, a group of middle-aged friends are gathering for their annual retreat at a genteel Southern resort. An acquaintance from the past thrusts himself into the yearly gathering, forcing them to re-examine their mundane yet seemingly idyllic existence, the opportunities they’ve lost, and the lives that have passed them by.

Reseñas editoriales

L.A. Theatre Works again scores solidly with this stellar audio production of a wonderful play by Lillian Hellman. This audio boasts famed actress Julie Harris, who leads a diverse cast that includes Gates McFadden, Glenne Headley, Mary Steenburgen, Eric Stoltz, and David Selby. The play is set at a Southern boardinghouse, where old friends gather to rediscover personal connections and rekindle lost relationships - only to find that they can't escape the choices of their past. The characterizations and accents are first-rate, with each actor using vocal energy and great dynamics to portray a complex character. The play, which moves along at a swift but comfortable pace, is an audio production well worth enjoying.

Loved the play, and thought the actors were all very fine. I love the theater, and would have been thrilled to sit in the audience for this fine Hellman play.

My only complaint is that there is no playbill - or cast list - available to scan before, or during the play. I'd loved to have had a list of the actors, and their roles, provided here at the page for The Autumn Garden. I knew most, but not all, of the actors' voices, and would like to have had that added bit of play-experience, of being able to check the actors by the role. The cast list is given, verbally, at the end of the production. Otherwise, a fine performance of the play.

Well done

I really love plays and haven't read, seen, and listened to enough of them. I've listened to some on Audible and find them to have excellent casts which helps me enjoy them more. Lillian Hellman was such a great writer, and a hero for not giving out names during the McCarthy trials.

I read that this was her favorite play, and I agree that it is very good. It hasn't aged as well as I had hoped which is why the four stars for story. I still give it 5 stars overall because the cast makes it compelling to listen to. It is about a bunch of friends and family gathering in the fall (early fall perhaps?). There's secrets, love, the end of love, and humor. The humor really made this better.

Fantastic cast to a good play
