Shakespeare on Broadway

Shakespeare on Broadway The Tony Award®-winning, Shakespeare's Globe productions of Twelfth Night and Richard III played their final sold-out performances February 16, 2014.

Two of The Bard’s finest plays are performed in repertory by a remarkable cast featuring two-time Tony Award® winner MARK RYLANCE (Jerusalem, Boeing-Boeing), Golden Globe nominee STEPHEN FRY (Wilde, Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows) and Tony Award nominee SAMUEL BARNETT (The History Boys). These classics are presented in the custom of how Shakespeare's plays were originally staged, with an extraordinary all-male company playing male and female roles; actors participating in the pre-show ritual of dressing and preparing their make-up on stage, in front of the audience; music played live on traditional instruments; and lighting created almost exclusively by 100 on-stage candles, adding to the intimate and authentic atmosphere. This is delightfully funny, timeless Shakespeare at its absolute finest, and it is not to be missed!
