" Forum" closes Sunday.
A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum

Metamorphoses runs April 28 - May 15.
Metamorphoses 

It's hard to describe the power and beauty of the show that won Mary Zimmerman a Tony Award for Best Direction of a Play. Metamorphoses is one of those magical pieces of theatre that you have to see to believe. The stories are ancient and universal, but the telling is fresh and contemporary. 

If you were lucky enough to attend the Guild Spotlight earlier this week, you heard our creative team talk passionately about the process of bringing this challenging work to the stage.
