The Amateurs by Jordan Harrison

June 13 – 22, 2025
Mainstage Theater at Hampshire College
893 West Street, Amherst, MA
In Jordan Harrison’s The Amateurs, a rag-tag theater troupe races across medieval Europe, struggling to outrun the Black Death. Their performances of crowd-pleasers such as “The Seven Deadly Sins” and “Noah’s Ark” are juxtaposed with witty, contemporary-feeling relationships, surprising sexual attractions and status games. The Amateurs examines the value of art and creativity in the face of an epic crisis.
The Comeuppance by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins
Directed by Cordelia Winter Dwyer

Mainstage Theater at Hampshire College
893 West Street, Amherst, MA
The Comeuppance, by Tony and Obie award-winning playwright Branden Jacobs-Jenkins (An Octaroon, Gloria, Appropriate), is an electrifying comedy and meditation on impermanence, nostalgia, and isolation. Fueled by adult jungle juice and pot, five former high school classmates who call themselves “The Multi-Ethnic Reject Group” swap memories and confront past resentments at an unforgettable porch pre-party to their 20-year reunion.
