About the Event
Virginia Tech and the Town of Blacksburg’s Summer Arts Festival proudly presents The Novelist by Theresa Rebeck, directed by Robyn Berg. This event will be held at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.
This delicious play by writer for stage and screen Theresa Rebeck, is an intelligent and funny ensemble drama. A family of artists are both cruelly destructive and fiercely protective of one another. Paul, a Nobel winning novelist suffering from writer's block, his elegant but feisty wife, two sons- an actor and an antique dealer and the actor's girlfriend are together for the first time in ages. Enter Paul's new assistant, a talented writing student. Bitter, funny chaos ensues.
