What about the ASC at the Blackfriars in Staunton or other theater companies in Minneapolis (where I live) say? But I suppose your list was not meant to be representative and not definitive.

Absolutely: if our list were definitive, it would go on forever. We’re just covering the companies that are a part of our Theater Partnership Program. In Minnesota, looks like you could catch some excellent shows at the Great River Shakespeare Festival, if you didn’t mind a trip down to Winona. In Minneapolis, the Shakespearean Youth Theatre is staging Macbeth in July! And, of course, the ASC has a very cool summer season going down in Stauton.

Don’t forget our local Maryland National Park and Planning’s Publick Playhouse’s Macbeth on July 24.

Thanks Niki! These are just performances from the Folger’s theater partners. But I could never forget about MNPPC’s Macbeth, because I’m actually playing Lennox in it. See you at the Publick!
