Greetings TAML Members,
Here is an invitation to my current theater project. I'm returning to West Hartford to appear with a talented group of artists in a production of Shakespeare's The Tempest. Given the title, it is our hope the weather will cooperate so that you may experience our performance outdoors. If not, THE SHOW MUST GO ON inside. As always looking forward to seeing you when it's over! 
Storm Clouds are Gathering: The Tempest is preparing to be unleashed! Capital Classics, Hartford's original outdoor Shakespeare festival will feature one of Shakespeare's greatest achievements, The Tempest. This powerful and poignant drama about the fates of those shipwrecked on a magical island will bring joy and fear to all who attend the Capital Classics Shakespeare Festival. Audience members are invited to bring a picnic, lawn chair, blanket and friends and enjoy a beautiful summer evening! With the luxury of both outdoor and indoor venues, our performances take place rain or shine.Directed by Capital Classics Artistic Director Laura Sheehan, The Tempest features company co-founder Geoffrey Sheehan (Prospero) and Artistic Associate Michael Nowicki (Caliban). The company welcomes several returning performers back from previous seasons: Grégoire Mouning, Kevin Green, James Curley, Jovan Davis and Tim Zayas. They are joined by a talented group including Kendra Underwood, Robert Sheire, David Regan, Joshua Wills, April Glick, Daniel Toot, Cayla Buettner, Jeremy Garfinkel and Sacha Brooks. Come celebrate the 19th anniversary of Capital Classics, Inc. providing entertaining outdoor theatre.
