ABC FAMILY ANNOUNCES SUMMER 2010 PROGRAMMING SLATE

After playing some of theater's most famous roles, actor Joe Spano takes on the role of theater's most famous scribe: William Shakespeare. Spano, best known for his roles on television's NCIS and Hill Street Blues, portrays Shakespeare (fondly called ‘Shag' after playwright Bill Cain's favorite contemporary spelling of the Bard's name: ‘Shagspeare' or ‘Shagespeare') in the Los Angeles premiere of Equivocation. Spano is joined by two-time Tony Award nominee Harry Groener as Richard, the second in command of Shag's winsome acting troupe, as well as Patrick J. Adams, Brian Henderson and Connor Trinneer, who comprise the rest of Shag's theater company - Sharpe, Armin and Nate, respectively. That said, as Equivocation's tale unwinds onstage, the actors ultimately play about two dozen roles ranging from conspirators and priests to Lady Macbeth and King Lear. The cast also features Troian Bellisario as Judith, Shakespeare's omnipresent daughter.
