Making History with Shakespeare’s Histories

This next announcement is a big one! Starting this July, I’ll be working with Brave Spirits Theatre on a truly epic project… We’ll be making history as the first American theatre company to mount full productions of all 8 of Shakespeare’s history plays and perform them in repertory.

With a company of 19 actors, we’ll all be performing many roles, but I’ve been initially cast as the title characters in Richard II and Richard III, the kings that start and end the 87-year story.

The project starts with fight combat workshops, text work, and staging rehearsals throughout the summer and fall of 2019, and performances of the Henriad (Richard II, Henry IV parts 1 and 2, and Henry V) begin in January 2020. Stay tuned for more updates along the way, and make plans to join us!
