Opening Marin Shakespeare Company's 30th Anniversary Season will be a contemporary design production of MEASURE FOR MEASURE, with scenes set in San Quentin State Prison, where the company has offered their Shakespeare In Prison Programs for the past 16 years. Artistic Director Robert Currier, who directs, looks forward to exploring this play about criminal justice, hypocrisy, and sexual harassment with actors and audience. Theres no other Shakespeare play that is as relevant today as MEASURE FOR MEASURE, says Currier, and for our audiences, many of whom have been to San Quentin to see inmate performances of Shakespeare plays, this setting will resonate in a way that is personal and immediate." Performances Thursdays through Saturdays at 8 pm, Sundays at 4 pm. June 28, Preview; June 29 Opening Night and Celebration. Tickets are $38 general, $35 senior, and $12 youth. Previews are $16, and $10 for youth.

BWW Review: MEASURE FOR MEASURE at Marin Shakespeare Company
July 08, 2019One of Shakespeare's least performed works, Measure for Measure, is also one of his best. With some of his most stunning verse alongside his bawdiest humor, it teeters on the razor edge between comedy and tragedy so delicately that it is considered one of his three "problem plays." This vibrant production at Marin Shakespeare elucidates much of the play's wit while not quite reaching the emotional heights of its soaring poetry.
