It takes a pretty special production to fully capture my interest for the entirety of a Shakespearean work, particularly given the length of most of his plays.The Actor Shakespeare Project's production of Pericles, performed at the Modern Theatre, is one of these special productions. One of Shakespeare's least produced pieces, Pericles tells the complicated story of a nobleman's journey from land to land, escaping murder, falling in love, losing his family, and regaining hope.

Actors' Shakespeare Project inaugurates The Modern Theatre with William Shakespeare's Antony & Cleopatra, a treatise for the ages on love, passion, greatness, and political folly.
