The Age of Innocence
This Globe-commissioned world premiere, based on Edith Wharton’s Pulitzer Prize-winning classic, is set in 1870s Gilded Age New York City, where high society clashes with love.
When the glamorous Countess Ellen Olenska sweeps into town, she upends the lives of everyone around her, especially the dashing lawyer Newland Archer. This new stage adaptation from Karen Zacarías is the kind of lush period production for which The Old Globe is renowned.
