The theatre’s Art On Tour lineup includes tense dramas and musical productions produced at six Portland theatres.
The shows in this year’s new-play fest at Actors Theatre of Louisville were in dialogue with past offerings, no doubt, but also with our current moment.
The lineup includes the world premiere of ‘Almost Famous,’ five West Coast premieres, and a holiday favorite.
The 2019-20 lineup will also include a world premiere by Tony Meneses and a ‘Twelfth Night’ directed by NY theatre critic Sara Holdren.
The actor discusses his career, the challenge of translating Shakespeare into American Sign Language, and his wish for an all-ASL show on Broadway.
The new-works incubator will support and present musicals, plays, puppetry, and other works in development.
The literature-inspired season is the first under new artistic director Cassie Greer.
Greer, who has served as associate artistic director since 2017, succeeds Scott Palmer in the role.
The critics are divided over 2 of the most buzzed-about musicals of the season, ‘Hadestown’ and ‘Oklahoma!’ What does it mean to hate something that everyone else loves? Also: What’s the difference between bad acting and miscasting?
The lineup will include new works by PearlDamour, Dave Malloy, and Kirsten Greenidge, plus the theatre’s last performances of ‘The Donkey Show.’
