Chester Theatre Company 2011 schedule

The 2011 schedule at Chester Theatre Company, running July 6th though August 28th, will feature four productions of contemporary American plays that have been adapted from works by Dostoyevsky, Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Henry James, and Christopher Marlowe. “I’m really excited about the concept behind this year’s slate of plays,” said CTC Artistic Director Byam Stevens, “the classics continue to inspire the writers of today, so we’re presenting a season of classic works re-imagined by contemporary American playwrights. Our audience will get something familiar — masterpieces by Dostoyevsky, Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Henry James, Christopher Marlowe — and something new — exciting, fresh renderings from today’s best writers.”
