The Colleagues Theatre Company

was founded six years ago by the actress Catherine Wolf with the admirable – and valuable – aim of producing work that focuses in subject matter on older people and in casting well-seasoned performers. It is a theatre of the venerable. It’s remarkable to see so many once prominent and still capable actors on the same stage.

"The very talented cast’s many decades of experience give the actors (Catherine Wolf, Elizabeth Parrish and Mary Fogarty) a collective sureness that can stand up to manic youthful energy any day."

​

"(Joan) Copeland, (Marge) Beddow, and Wolf sparkle practically every moment they are on stage."

The Madwoman of Chaillot

​

"The three ladies (Anne Jackson, Kim Hunter and Catherine Wolf) engage in high comedy that spiritedly elevates the production."
