Melissa Ross' Of Good Stock to Replace Richard Greenberg's The Swing of the Sea at MTC

An off-Broadway switcheroo is going on. Melissa Ross' Of Good Stock will receive its New York premiere at MTC, replacing the previously announced The Swing of the Sea by Richard Greenberg. This is to allow for more work to be done on the latter. Directed by Lynne Meadow, the limited engagement will begin previews on June 2 and officially open on June 23 at New York City Center—Stage 1.

The three Stockton sisters are witty, brilliant, beautiful—and a total mess, thanks to the legacy of their complicated novelist father. In Melissa Ross’ new play, these women gather at their family home on Cape Cod for a summer weekend. Their reunion ignites passions, humor, and wildly unanticipated upheavals.

The production will feature scenic design by Santo Loquasto, costume design by Tom Broecker, lighting design by Peter Kaczorowski and sound design by Jill BC Du Boff.
