Shakespeare Theatre Company: The History of a Classical Theatre (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781942155935)

Shakespeare Theatre Company: The History of a Classical Theatre tells the engaging story of how this nonprofit theatre in Washington, DC, became one of America's foremost theatres. Illustrated with hundreds of dramatic, full color, photographs of productions and performers, Greene's history takes us from the early performances of Shakespeare in America through the founding of the enthralling Shakespeare Theatre Company (STC) and its current life as a theatre that embraces Shakespeare, other classical playwrights, and contemporary dramatists whose plays may be destined to become classics. This unique history was envisioned and initiated by longtime supporter of the theatre Lawrence Hough to commemorate the fortieth anniversary of the company.
