Photos: American Players Theatre Presents CYMBELINE

American Players Theatre presents a new adaptation of William Shakespeare's Cymbeline as part of its summer season. The production opened in the 1,089-seat outdoor Hill Theatre Saturday, August 17.

APT's Artistic Director Brenda DeVita said of the production, "We are so thrilled to be working on this production of Cymbeline. It's a play APT has only produced once before, and this adaptation by Director Marti Lyons and our Director of Voice and Text, Sara Becker, featuring an incredible cast of women - it truly opens up new facets of the play. The story very much feels like a fairy tale, and it's so much fun to play with those tropes and kind of turn them upside down, and inspect what's relevant and true and exciting about this often-overlooked Shakespeare play. And it shouldn't be overlooked. Because ultimately, it's a play about forgiveness. Who deserves it? Is anything truly unforgiveable? How do you hold people accountable for their misdeeds, whether they're trivial or dangerous? Those are questions we, as a society, are asking every day, and it could not feel more timely. I'm so excited for our audience to see it and dig into those questions."
