Shakespeare Theatre
Shakespeare Theatre Review
This acclaimed troupe crafts fantastically staged and acted performances of works by Shakespeare and his contemporaries, offering traditional renditions but also some with a modern twist. Complementing the existing stage in the Lansburgh Theatre is the Sidney Harman Hall, which provides a 21st-century, state-of-the-art, mid-size venue for an outstanding variety of performances, from Shakespeare's Two Gentleman of Verona to the hilarious Abridged History of America. For two weeks in late spring the group performs Shakespeare for free at Carter Barron Amphitheatre.
