Outside
WAM Theatre’s 15th Anniversary Benefit & Site-Specific Performance
Outside
Created and directed by WAM Artistic Director Genée Coreno
The Mount, Edith Wharton’s Home
Lenox, MA
SAVE THE DATE: Sunday, August 18th
Celebrate WAM Theatre’s 15th Anniversary with a site-specific performance of Outside created and directed by our new Artistic Director at The Mount, Edith Wharton’s Home.
Outside tells the story of June Ashbury who returns to a place called Paradise following a climate event. Guided by a lone-wolf, June traverses landscapes weathered by time and loss, gathering strength and hope as she journeys towards new horizons.
Audiences will be guided through the grounds of The Mount by characters, text, original score, and puppetry in this family-friendly outside theatrical experience.
Sliding Scale Ticket Pricing
This production commits to equitable seating and will have sliding scale ticket pricing.
Audience members are encouraged to choose from one of the suggested price levels. The Standard ticket price reflects true cost of producing this production, the lower ticket price is provided to remove a barrier to entry to patrons who would benefit from a subsidized ticket, and the higher ticket price allows patrons who are able to help us make theater accessible to all. Ticket pricing will be announced Spring 2024.
Tickets
Tickets for Outside go on sale Spring 2024!
Reimbursement for Caregiver Costs
Making theatre more accessible for caregivers.
In acknowledgement of the extra burden faced by parent-artists and caregivers, WAM Theatre is proud to offer Caregiver reimbursement stipends.
If you incur caregiver costs (babysitters, after school care, adult caregivers, etc.) in order to attend a WAM live theatre performance or workshop, you can request a reimbursement of up to $75. Use the button below to connect to a google form to apply for reimbursement.
WAM is grateful to our generous sponsors of this program and our collaborations with the Parent-Artist Advocacy League for the Performing Arts (PAAL), a national resource hub and network for individual parent-artists, caregivers, and institutions.

Your Theatre Experience
Location
Where is WAM Theatre located?
WAM Theatre’s productions take place in theatres across the Berkshire Region. Please be sure to check each listing when you book your ticket.
Accessibility
Can WAM accommodate patrons with disabilities?
Absolutely! Please let us know your needs when you book your ticket so we can help make your visit as comfortable as possible. All the performance spaces we are working in this year are wheelchair accessible. Our streamed performances and online conversations will have closed captioning. For our Fall production we can provide patrons with assisted listening devices, these will be distributed by the ushers at the entrance to the theatre space and can be returned there when you leave. We are currently working towards offering ASL-Interpreted, and for our Main Stage we usually have Sensory or Visually Impaired performances these are listed in the performance schedule. We would love to hear from you if you think of a way that we can make WAM Theatre events more accessible or would like to help us in this endeavor – email info@wamtheatre.com with the subject line “accessibility idea”
Age Appropriateness
Are WAM Theatre productions suitable for children?
Since we are committed to stories of social justice, our plays often deal with mature subject matter and as such are not always appropriate for young children. For your convenience, we can provide an age-appropriate guide for each show. Parents are also welcome to contact the WAM office and ask for a copy of the script to preview if they would like to decide for themselves if the play will be appropriate.
