William Shakespeare meets Andrew Lloyd Webber with the arrival of this Broadway musical at Chicago Shakespeare’s 525-seat courtyard-style theatre. Magnificent costumes, energetic dance routines and music by a live eight-piece band have earned much praise for this production. Bernie Yvon stars in the title role, after understudying Donny Osmond. La Tonya Holmes, the Narrator, who was part of the first national tour of ‘Big River’, is a Jeff Award winner widely recognised for her four-octave vocal range.
