New World Theatre – Summer 2013

Posted by Crout On May - 14 - 2013

According to Jeannette Lambermont-Morey, Artistic Director for the New World Theatre Project, in its third year, “New World Theatre Project is entering a new phase of focused, concentrated, visionary work.” She goes on to say: ” NWTP will offer several diverse, variety-style events packed with music, laughter, wonder and inspiration.”

  • There will be a Renaissance Fair called Thomas of Woodstock Day
  • The Tiring House, first offered by Chris Dreidzic in our inaugural year, and now back by popular demand.
  • NWTP will host a fresh new one-woman version of Shakespeare’s Othello, created by Alan Dillworth and Courtney Brown.
  • Richard III:Tragedy of a Nation (Exploring the Play)

More information will be coming soon about the unique experience of 17th Century Theatre in an idyllic setting in Cupids, about fifty minutes from St. John’s.

Put out the fire.
