The American Shakespeare Center (ASC) announces their ensemble for the 2019 Summer Festival Season which runs at the Blackfriars Playhouse in Staunton, Va, June 25 - September 1.

The American Shakespeare Center (ASC) Winter Season: The Actors' Renaissance began previews this past weekend of The Merry Wives of Windsor and Henry IV, Part 1.

Richard III chronicles the cataclysmic end of England's greatest power struggle, the Wars of the Roses. Richard is the play's remarkable, charismatic, and repulsive ringmaster - he takes the audience into his confidence as he plots to kill everyone before him in line for the throne. Being seduced by Richard's shameless treachery is one of theatre-going's most delicious guilty pleasures.

The American Shakespeare Center (ASC) began its 30th Anniversary Artistic Year with the launch of the 2018 Summer/Fall Season and a performance of As You Like It on June 13. The 2018 Summer/Fall Season will also feature a world-premiere adaptation of Jane Austen's Emma by Emma Whipday, Richard III, and George Etherege's The Man of Mode.
