Taking on Timon

We're very excited to have launched our latest production, "Timon of Athens", which will be presented from May 19-June 13 at Midway Studios in Fort Point Channel. Part satire, part tragedy, "Timon" tackles complex themes of greed, hubris, and the power of money. Contemporary audiences will find many parallels to our current economic situation in this tale of financial management gone awry.

Rehearsals began this week and our brilliant cast is already hard at work developing their characters and shaping the interactions that will engage the audience in "Timon". Under the insightful leadership of director Bill Barclay, we've begun -scene by scene - to flesh out the production and to assess how a variety of influences, including Beckett, Kandinsky, and Brecht will help us tell the "Timon" story.

We look forward to sharing the details of our progress and hope to see you at Midway!
