The 2012 Season
1-10 of 25In discussing the season, Artistic Director Bill Rauch noted, "This season celebrates the adventurous spirit of our company and our audience. In a nod toward my fifth year as artistic director, we have a record-breaking five new works: simultaneous looks at the 1960s in two American Revolutions world premieres, two wildly different adaptations of our namesake playwright's works, as well as a breathtaking new version of a global classic from one of our country's leading innovators. Two plays give us Shakespeare's own contradictory views on the nature of war and will play alongside his most exquisite tragedy and one of his most delightful comedies. Add into the mix a sublime new adaptation of a classic from our artistic director emerita and an outrageous vaudeville musical, and we have a season that we trust will leave you breathless with its daring variety."
