"Dedicated
to staging revivals of great plays, Chestnuts, a new wing
of Theatre West, is commendably affording new audiences a
chance at seeing productions that might have been lost to
history." ~ Backstage West
CHESTNUTS
is the award winning production wing of Theatre West dedicated
to quality revivals of great plays. Launched in the winter of
2005 with a critically acclaimed production of the great Rod
Serling classic Requiem
for a Heavyweight, Chestnuts quickly followed with the
equally acclaimed productions of The
Lion in Winter and
Dancing at Lughnasa. Next up
is Noel Coward's comedy Waiting
in the Wings.
