"I'm so pleased to be able to continue the Classic Conversation series in our new season," Kahn said. "I've enjoyed talking with some very talented actors working in the theatre and look forward to welcoming more guests to the Sidney Harman Hall stage. Our patrons have also had a great time with the series and it's wonderful we can continue to offer them this unique experience."

Kahn, known not only for his rigorous and ingenious presentation of classical works but also for his signature charm and wit, welcomes these distinguished actors to STC for a chance to analyze and discuss the importance of classical theatre in today's society.
