The ASC's first-ever production of TITUS ANDRONICUS will start with a special evening preview performance this Sunday, July 12 at 7:30pm at the Blackfriars Playhouse. And check out the Facebook wall for the characters from TITUS.
Beginning Tuesday, July 14, the Blackfriars Playhouse will offer four special performances at the family-friendly time of 6:30pm.
"Do I like this play? Very 'Much Ado,'" writes critic Charles Culbertson in the Staunton News Leader. "Director Jim Warren has pulled on his steel-toed sneakers and sent MUCH ADO sailing out of the stadium."
Education & Research
The American Shakespeare Center is looking for bright, inventive, and driven individuals with interests in Development and Marketing to work with them this summer. Come on board with the Bard and add credits to your resume.
As a result of working with the actors and hearing from Ralph Cohen, Paul Menzer and other guests in the NEH, Rhonda Knight has won a substantial award from the NEH to return to Staunton.
ASC Actors and Dr. Ralph Alan Cohen reveal all about the plays at ASC.
