Preview of "Mauritius" at Westport Country Playhouse

Playreading in the 2023 Script in Hand Playreading Series on Monday, March 13th at 7PM

Stamp collecting is far more risky than you think. After their mother’s death, two estranged half-sisters discover a book of rare stamps that may include the crown jewel for collectors. One sister tries to collect on the windfall, while the other resists for sentimental reasons. In this gripping tale, a seemingly simple sale becomes dangerous when three seedy, high-stakes collectors enter the sisters’ world, willing to do anything to claim the rare find as their own.


Written and directed by Theresa Rebeck, award-winning television writer, producer, screenwriter, three-time novelist, and creator of NBC’s "Smash." Named “the most Broadway-produced female playwright of our time” by Forbes.

"Mauritius is a terrific thriller crackling with suspense and intrigue from the first page to the last."- Mark Shanahan, Script in Hand Series Curator
