Dear Rogues,
Rehearsals for
The Merchant of Venice
are going beautifully! We look forward to sharing this unique play--
a combination of romantic comedy and courtroom drama--in just over a week.
Join us at The Rogue on this
Saturday April 25
for what will certainly be a thought-provoking afternoon with Dr. Peter Medine.
Because of the tremendous response to our pre-show talks, we are now offering two talks--one at 2:00 p.m. and another at 3:30 p.m. Come to either one and learn about the play and catch a glimpse of the production!
(And be sure to get your tickets soon for the play, some dates are already
sold out!)
