Written by Obie Award-winner Christopher Durang, the comedic double feature, “Sister Mary Ignatius Explains It All For You” and “The Actor’s Nightmare” is an absurdly hilarious evening of theatre. The Berkshire Theatre Group production of the show, running now in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, is directed by Matthew Penn and features Tony Award-winner Harriet Harris, Levi Hall, Anna O'Donoghue, Tom Story, Matt Sullivan and Ariana Venturi.

Hailed as “consistently clever” by The New York Times when it first opened in 1981, “Sister Mary Ignatius Explains It All For You” and “The Actor’s Nightmare” are still bitingly witty satires on the psychology of belief and belonging. The show runs at BTG’s Unicorn Theatre through August 31st. Here to tell us more we welcome: Harriet Harris, Anna O’Donoghue, and Matt Sullivan.

Joe talks to people on the radio for a living. In addition to countless impressive human "gets" - he has talked to a lot of Muppets. Joe grew up in Philadelphia, has been on the area airwaves for more than 25 years and currently lives in Washington County, NY with his wife, Kelly, and their dog, Brady. And yes, he reads every single book.
