St. Louis Shakespeare presents Edward III March 14, 2009

March 13 - 22, 2009

Directed by Artistic Director Donna Northcott

The Midwest premiere of a "new" Shakespeare play! The Reign of King Edward the Third concerns two campaigns of the 14th-century English king. One is military, as Edward leads his army against France to assert his claim to its throne. The other is amorous, as he beseiges the virture of the Countess of Salisbury, whose husband is a loyal subject. Be among the first to see this newly discovered gem!

This production will be performed at Orthwein Theatre on the campus of Mary Institute and St. Louis Country Day School.

Tickets available through Metrotix (314-534-1111 or www.metrotix.com). Tickets may also be purchased at the Orthwein Theatre box office beginning one hour before each performance.
