Timon of Athens
by William Shakespeare
directed by Barbara Gaines
April 24 – June 10, 2012
ChiIL Live Shows will be there for opening night of Timon of Athens tonight at Chicago Shakespeare Theatre. We can't wait to see renowned actor, Ian McDiarmid in the lead. Check back with ChiIL Live Shows like we vote in Chi, IL...early and often. We'll have a full review up shortly.
In a high-risk world of quick profits and borrowed luxury, Timon is a god among men. But can this titan survive when the tides of fortune turn? From performances with the Royal Shakespeare Company and on Broadway to the Star Wars film series and beyond, internationally celebrated actor Ian McDiarmid is brilliantly matched to the challenging role of Timon. And Artistic Director Barbara Gaines' gripping new production features the kind of inventive staging and electrifying performances that always makes an evening at Chicago Shakespeare one to remember—book your tickets today!
