Virginia Stage Company at the Wells Theatre


The Good Company, a scrappy self-produced off-off-off Broadway theatre company, is rehearsing its next big show, a play about Sallying Hemings and Thomas Jefferson. Writer Luce is playing Sally; her partner in romance and art, Mike, is both the director and playing Tom – what could go wrong?  Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Suzan-Lori Parks examines art, power and American History in this humorous and harrowing play.
