Theatre makers don’t just pass through Williamstown Theatre Festival; they carry it with them. We witness Williamstown’s magic rippling out into the world – in rehearsal rooms, on Broadway stages, in film and television, and in regional theaters nationwide.
Congratulations to the 10 Festival alums who received Tony Awards this season.
Swipe to revisit these award-winning artists’ time at Williamstown.
