  • Entertainment

For the first time in 30 years, the MTC presents a brand-new production of Shakespeare’s joyous war of words and razor-sharp banter, under the direction of Associate Artist Mark Wilson (Jacky).

Strap in for a theatrical feast to send the year out on a high, with Shakespeare’s classic comedy of love’s ecstasy and complexities.
