At South Coast Repertory's Annual Meeting on July 30, Board President Larry Higby presented an assessment of the 2007-08 Season and introduced a new slate of officers for 2008-09, headed by incoming President Wylie Aitken. The unanimously elected executive committee will lead the theater during the 45th Season (September 1, 2008 - August 31, 2009), which will be a landmark for South Coast Repertory and its founders David Emmes and Martin Benson, America's longest-running co-artistic directors.

Fresh from their critically acclaimed production of Twelfth Night, ShakespeareNYC, formerly Shakespeare at Love Creek, presents a double-barreled sampling of The Bard with productions of A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM and THE WINTER'S TALE. The two works, presented in repertory, will hold court at the Lion Theatre at 410 West 42nd Street on Theatre Row starting March 18th. Both plays are Equity Showcases and each will be helmed by ShakespeareNYC Artistic Director Beverly Bullock.
