This past year, The Acting Company presented a co-production with The Guthrie Theater, Henry V, in repertory with Jeffrey Hatcher's stage adaptation of James Fenimore Cooper's espionage novel The Spy. In 2007-08, we presented Orson Welles' Moby Dick Rehearsed, a stage adaptation of Herman Melville's classic, and William Shakespeare's magical last play, The Tempest. For the 2006-2007 season, The Acting Company presented Polly Teale's adaptation of Charlotte Bronte's classic Jane Eyre and Student Performances of Love, Shakespeare. The 2005-06 Season included Shakepeare's Macbeth and Alexandre Dumas' The Three Musketeers. In 2004-05, The Turn of the Screw was joined in touring repertory by Shakespeare’s The Two Gentlemen of Verona. In 2003, Murder by Poe continued The Acting Company’s series of commissioning, developing and producing new plays based on great American literature. Following powerful and successful productions of Willa Cather’s O Pioneers! (2000-01), Mark Twain’s Pudd’nhead Wilson (2001-02) and Stud's Terkel's American  Dreams: Lost and Found (2002-03), Murder by Poe brought to the stage the work of one of our country's most well-known and widely read writers. In 2005-06, we presented The Lottery by Shirley Jackson for student audiences nationwide. Our commissioned adaptation of Carson McCullers' The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter played 5 weeks in Atlanta prior to a tour southern cities. A New York presentation is planned for this season.  More information...
