| Coriolanus
| Open: 06/14/06 Close: 06/25/06
CORIOLANUS, thought by T.S. Eliot to be Shakespeare's greatest tragedy, is the story of an impossible man. Coriolanus is early Republican Rome's military hero, driven from the city then begged to spare it; a politician who refuses to indulge in spin and who will not disguise his contempt for the people; the infantilized son of one Shakespeare's most powerful and fascinating women, Volumnia. | |

Julius Caesar
| Open: 08/07/05 Close: 08/20/05

| The Winter's Tale
| Open: 03/18/05 Close: 04/02/05
A seldom-seen romance work of the Bard's, The Winter's Tale explores the follies of jealousy and suspicion as well as the hope of redemption.
