RemarkaBULL PODVERSATION
Much Ado about Benedick
with
GRANTHAM COLEMAN
NEXT WEDNESDAY, January 19, 2022
7:30 PM EST
| LIVESTREAM

RemarkaBULL Podversations are informal, online conversations that investigate approaches to essential passages from the Shakespearean and Jacobean canon and beyond. This event will star Grantham Coleman (Much Ado About Nothing for Shakespeare in the Park; Broadway's The Great Society and Choir Boy, and television's “The Americans”). He will join host Nathan Winkelstein, Red Bull’s Associate Artistic Director, for a conversation focused on Much Ado About Nothing’s Benedick—a role he played to great acclaim for Shakespeare in the Park in 2019. Coleman will read an excerpt from the play and discuss the challenges of that particular speech (Act 2, Scene 3) as well as the rewards of playing one of Shakespeare’s most charismatic leading men. They’ll take questions from viewers, too. FIND OUT MORE

 

 

 

 

Online Benefit Reading
THE WONDER OF WOMEN
by John Marston
Directed by Nathan Winkelstein
Monday, January 31, 2022
7:30 PM EST | LIVESTREAM

​Sensational melodrama, overt eroticism, and splashes of wry wit color John Marston’s grimly dark Jacobean tragedy – inspired by events from Roman history. A dauntless princess is tested in a crucible of moral absolutes, ruthless ambition, and utter depravity. After her wedding night is interrupted by the onset of war, Sophonisba emerges from a series of conspiracies with heroic virtue as the “just shame of men” and multi-faceted “wonder of women.” GET COMPLETE DETAILS

 

 

 

 

Our recently closed Off-Broadway production of Ben Jonson's THE ALCHEMIST will stream on-demand from February 1 - February 14, 2022. This event is Pay What You Can, but a reservation is required. More information coming soon.
