Description
World PremiereIn association with the Stratford Shakespeare Festival, Ontario, Canada
by Jean Racine
Translated and adapted by Timberlake Wertenbaker
Directed by Carey Perloff
In this explosive world premiere production, A.C.T. joins forces with one of the most thrilling theater companies in the world, the Stratford Shakespeare Festival, giving audiences a rare opportunity to witness exquisite classical acting from this prestigious Canadian company in its Bay Area debut. Stratford star actor Seana McKenna plays Phedre, a woman caught in an agonizing love triangle with her husband, King Theseus of Athens, and his son by a former marriage. As passions erupt, will her desire for a younger man overwhelm her duty to her husband, her children, and her kingdom?
