Upcoming Show

Two Gentlemen of Verona

Two Gentlemen of Verona

written by William Shakespeare

directed by Paul Mullins

The CWRU/CPH MFA Acting Program of 2016 takes their final bow in Shakespeare’s rollicking comedy that tackles fidelity, shifting loyalties, and love run amok. When two young men fall in love with the same woman, their lifelong friendship hangs in the balance. Along the way, you’ll meet idiosyncratic servants, a runaway woman disguised as a man, domineering fathers, outlaws, and theatre’s most famous—and disobedient—dog.
