Tickets for Shakespeare amp Company's 35th Season go on sale today. The 2012-2013 season is set to include an appearance by Olympia Dukakis in an all-female version of 'The Tempest.' From the perspective of someone who witnessed first hand the beginnings of our Company, says Artistic Director Tony Simotes. It is astonishing to look back at what weve achieved. I am proud to say that we are at the forefront of actor training and education programs in terms of objective and scope. It is a tremendous privilege to be Shakespeare amp Companys Artistic Director during this exciting time, and I feel that weve compiled a riveting and daring list of productions this season that not only reflect the best of what Shakespeare amp Company has to offer, but will take us to the next level.
