The summer season at the Williamstown Theatre Festival officially gets underway when Christopher Durang's Beyond Therapy begins performances June 11.

Tony winner Katie Finneran and Tony-nominated actress Kate Burton appear in Durang's comedy about "a chance meeting through a personal ad [that] provides two New Yorkers with a multitude of topics for their therapy sessions. The lines between doctor and patient, however, are hilariously blurred," festival press notes state. Alex Timbers directs.

'SNL' veteran Darrell Hammond to star in 'Beyond Therapy'

"Darrell in particular has found a vulnerability to Stuart that I didn't expect," Timbers says. "This is one of the most produced plays in the modern theatrical canon, so I wondered if everyone involved would have preconceived notions of how to approach it. Instead, I've found a real commitment to digging into the characters."Continued...

Lap up the laughs at ComedyFest
By GRAEME MCRANOR, 24 HOURS

As daylight falls back and prepares for its limited winter run, take solace in September and all its festival fun.

Fringe is in full swing, the Vancouver Film Festival kicks off Sept. 27 and, nestled right in the middle, is the Global ComedyFest, which starts tonight at Lafflines with Grammy Award-winning comedian Tommy Chong.

This year's comedyfest spans 10 days and includes performances from Jon Lovitz and Darrell Hammond, two of Saturday Night Live's most-loved cast members.

There's also the first annual "Baked Sale" at the Yale, Sept. 20. Olympic Gold medalist and second-hand THC aficionado Ross Rebagliati hosts a night of hilarity featuring a bunch of comics telling jokes about marijuana.

But there's more in the comedy pot, so to speak: David Cross (Arrested Development), Bob Odenkirk, Graham Clark (sober Graham or drunk Graham?), Todd Glass and many more.

ComedyFest runs from Sept. 13-22. Tickets are on sale now. Visit www.comedyfest.com for more info.

Is Saturday Night Live alive and kicking?
Over more than three decades, the venerable late-night institution has had its peaks and its valleys
Aug 25, 2007 04:30 AM

Television Critic

Is Saturday Night Live back from the dead? Or has it become a tired and toothless anachronism with one foot in the grave?

The answers are yes and no – to both questions. Over more than three decades, the venerable late-night institution has had its peaks and its valleys, its ebb and flow, the best of times invariably followed by the worst. Continued

BuzzKill
DYLAN Hundley - the cute, WASP-y blonde who starred in "Metropolitan," the 1990 Whit Stillman film about rich Manhattanites on the cusp of adulthood - is back in the movie business as a producer. Hundley is in town shooting "BuzzKill," which she describes as "a cool little comedy road film." The low-budget indie is about a struggling writer, played by Daniel Raymont, trying to get to L.A. for a meeting with just $400 in his pocket and a broken-down car. The cast also includes Darrell Hammond as a serial killer as well as Reiko Aylesworth of "24" and Krysten Ritter of "Until Death."
