Pennington's 'Sweet William' Begins Tonite at Guthrie, thru 12/22

Direct on the heels of a successful UK run, Michael Pennington brings his hit one-man show to the Guthrie for a limited engagement, December 11 - 22 on the McGuire Proscenium Stage.

A large-spirited salute to the Bard, Sweet William is part biography, part analysis and part performance. Reflecting on his long international experience as a director and leading actor, and having spend some 20,000+ hours onstage performing Shakespeare, Michael Pennington sets out to celebrate the life and work of the theater icon.

Tickets are priced from $25 to $45 and are on sale through the Guthrie Box Office at 612-377-2224, toll-free 877-44-STAGE and online at www.guthrietheater.org
