Description:
The Actors' Theatre has been strutting and fretting their hours (to paraphrase Shakespeare)on the summertime stage since 1982. Performing both well- and lesser-known works by the Bard (as well as contemporary Shakespeare-inspired selections), they offer an experience much like that found at the original Globe Theater, where actors were so close you could practically touch them. Bring a chair or blanket, and settle in for an evening of great theater under the stars. |
