Actors’ Theatre Announces
2008 Summer Season
We have a very exciting line-up of shows for this summer!
Macbeth will open on Memorial Day weekend. One of Shakespeare’s greatest tragedies, this shocking portrayal of the fruits of unrestrained ambition is also one of his shortest plays. This production will be directed by John S. Kuhn.
The second production, opening on June 19, is the classic comedy, Tartuffe by Moliere. A con artist uses a feigned religious piety to worm his way into the home and lives of a wealthy French family. Guest Director, Beth Kattleman, from the OSU theatre department will direct.
Directed by John S. Kuhn, our third offering will be Measure for Measure. Seven actors will present the entire play, in this very theatrical rendering of Shakespeare’s comedic exploration on the nature of justice.
The final play at the Park this summer will be Cyrano de Bergerac, by Rostand. This very funny romantic melodrama, directed by Frank A. Barnhart, looks at the meaning of true love.
The Complete Works of Shakespeare…. Abridged will not appear at the Park this summer but will again be taken out on tour. We already have a number of bookings in place around the state. If you or your organization would like to bring this hugely funny and accessible look at all of Will’s works to your venue, please contact us.
It’s a very exciting season with something for everyone. Tragedy. Comedy. Romance.
Come see what all the excitement’s about!
