Dennehy and Callow Join Stratford
Brian Dennehy and Simon Callow will join Canada’s Stratford Festival for the 2008 season. Dennehy will appear as the King in Shakespeare’s “All’s Well That Ends Well,” as well as in a double bill of “Krapp’s Last Tape” by Samuel Beckett and “Hughie” by Eugene O’Neill. In 2004, Dennehy performed the O’Neill piece to great acclaim at the Goodman Theatre.
Callow has been commissioned by the Festival to prepare a piece based on Shakespeare’s sonnets for the 2008 season. As yet untitled, it will be directed by one of the Festival’s former Artistic Directors, Michael Langham.
