Join us for some laughter in the first two weekends of May 2019 when we play As You Like It. Ken Kaden, who directed Wheaton Drama’s record-breaking production of The 39 Steps and was recently announced to direct Hauptmann, will take the reigns of this classic romantic comedy with the aid of Sean Ogren as co-director and Lisa Dawn leading the way as the fair Rosalind.
Here at Bard in the Burbs, we believe that odd is beautiful. For that reason, our show schedule is always a bit odd.
Please note the beauty of the following:
- We do not have Sunday matinees. We have Sunday evening shows. Having lunch with Mom? Performing in a matinee somewhere else? No worries!
- If you are attending a Sunday evening show, please avoid parking alongside the building; park opposite the building or in the neighboring lot to leave room for overnight truck parking.
- With understudies for two shows, come and see the cast on any given day, but then come back and see the performances of our understudies for a different taste of the production:
- On Saturday May 11th
- Matt Johnson as Silvius
- Andy Dameron as First Lord
- TBD
- Matt Johnson as Silvius
- Michael Wilson as First Lord
