Summer 2019 - Nellie Beavers was 20th in line sitting on the sidewalk outside the Walter Kerr Theatre at five AM. She'd been there since before dawn, waiting for rush tickets to Hadestown. If it won the Tony, as she suspected it would, she'd never be able to afford a ticket. She had Empanada Mama's delivered to her on the sidewalk, and she was catching up on MasterChef Junior when it hit her, 'I'm an adult with a credit card! Why am I sitting on the ground?'

Edmond Rostand’s classic comes back to the West End with a new adaptation by Simon Evans and Debris Stevenson.

It is a lovely bit of continuity for this tight-knit community.

To quote the great bard himself, writer and actor Jacob Ming-Trent: “Congregation, that was a lot.” Facilitated by Folger Theatre and Red Bull Theater, Ming-Trent’s one-act, one-man show How Shakespeare Saved My Life was a lot of energy, a lot of testimony, and a lot of reckoning.
