March 26, 2021<\/p>\n

Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival has announced its re-opening for Summer 2021,\u00a0with exciting plans for a variety of outdoor, indoor, and virtual performances. The season will run June 25 to August 1 at, and adjacent to, the Labuda Center for the Performing Arts at DeSales University in Center Valley, PA. Though the full season will be announced soon, the summer season will feature August Wilson\u2019s\u00a0<\/strong>one-man\u00a0<\/strong>theatrical memoir\u00a0<\/strong>How I Learned What I Learned,\u00a0<\/em>starring veteran stage, film, and television actor\u00a0Tony Todd<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

With an acting career spanning more than 30 years, Mr. Todd has an extensive list of credits in all genres. His films include Oliver Stone’s Academy Award-winning Platoon<\/em>; Lean On Me <\/em>with Morgan Freeman; Clint Eastwood\u2019s Bird; <\/em>and the voice of the Fallen in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen<\/em>; among many others.<\/p>\n

The charismatic six-foot-five actor is perhaps best known for his chilling performances in horror
\nand sci-fi films including the title role in the Candyman<\/em> franchise, as well as the Hatchet <\/em>and Final Destination <\/em>franchise hits, along with Night of the Living Dead<\/em>, The Crow<\/em>, and The Rock<\/em>.<\/p>\n

On television, he has had prominent guest starring roles in numerous critically-acclaimed television series including Riverdale <\/em>for the CW, Room 104 <\/em>for HBO, Scream <\/em>for MTV, the villain Zoom on the CW series The Flash<\/em>, recurring roles on all three incarnations of Star Trek<\/em>, and many more.<\/p>\n

Mr. Todd has received accolades for numerous roles on stage including a coveted Helen Hayes Award for his performance in Athol Fugard\u2019s The Captain\u2019s Tiger<\/em> at the La Jolla Playhouse, Manhattan Theatre Club, and The Kennedy Center; and originating the title role in the world premiere of August Wilson\u2019s King Hedley II <\/em>in Pittsburgh, Boston, and Seattle. (Variety<\/em> lauded, \u201cTodd\u2019s King Hedley dominates the stage.\u201d His performance \u201cwas a memorable tour-de-force.\u201d)<\/p>\n

His additional stage credits include the TheaterWorks production of Dominique Morriseau\u2019s Sunset Baby;<\/em> his one-man-play Ghost in the House<\/em>, about the late great boxer Jack Johnson; the world premiere of Marcus Gardley\u2019s Black Odyssey<\/em> at the Denver Center Theatre; along with Zooman & the Sign, Playboy of the West Indies, Les Blancs, Othello, Aida <\/em>on Broadway, and many others, including Troy Maxson in August Wilson\u2019s Fences<\/em> at the Geva Theatre Center.<\/p>\n

As a voice artist, Todd\u2019s signature basso can be heard in countless animated films and as numerous characters in film, television, and the gaming industry.<\/p>\n

Written and originally performed by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright August Wilson, How I Learned What I Learned<\/em> explores autobiographical insights into the career of one of America\u2019s greatest writers. This theatrical memoir charts Wilson\u2019s life and artistic journey, from growing up in Pittsburgh\u2019s Hill District to the completion of Fences<\/em> (originally slated for PSF\u2019s 2020 summer season) and other plays in his renowned American Century Cycle. In a moving solo performance, Wilson\u2019s poetic power takes center stage, illuminating a vivid portrait of his self-discovery and growth in becoming a Black artist in America.<\/p>\n

\u201cTony\u2019s versatility, artistry, and craft as an actor, coupled with his rich experience with August Wilson\u2019s plays, will prove invaluable in plumbing the depths of this playwright\u2019s perspective and insight,\u201d says Producing Artistic Director Patrick Mulcahy.\u00a0 \u201cWe are so pleased to have an actor of Tony Todd\u2019s caliber soloing in this iconic role as we bring the story of\u00a0this master craftsman of the American theatre to our mainstage this summer.\u201d<\/p>\n

How I Learned What I Learned<\/em> will be directed by Christopher V. Edwards, who was previously slated to direct last season\u2019s Fences<\/em>. Mr. Edwards has recently joined PSF\u2019s staff as Distinguished Artist & Consultant, providing insight and guidance for planning, programming, organizational development, diversity and inclusion.\u00a0Edwards is the artistic director of the Actor\u2019s Shakespeare Project in Boston. Prior, he was the artistic director of Nevada Conservatory Theatre in Las Vegas and he was the associate artistic director and a 14-year company member with the Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival in New York, where he directed and acted in more than 30 productions.<\/p>\n

The Festival looks forward to celebrating its re-opening and 30th \u00a0<\/sup>anniversary season with its debut of this groundbreaking play. In the coming weeks, look for the full season line-up, more casting announcements, the various ways to attend performances, and PSF\u2019s safety protocols.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll of our planning aims to create a safe, refreshing, and enriching theatre experience this summer season. Folks can join us in our new outdoor space or indoors, in person or virtually, or through all of these options. The goal is to provide something for everyone from an attendance perspective,\u201d says Mulcahy.<\/p>\n

The Festival\u2019s season will run from June 25th<\/sup> through August 1st<\/sup>.\u00a0 Please visit www.pashakespeare.org<\/a> for the latest updates.<\/p>\n

About Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival, under the leadership of Producing Artistic Director Patrick Mulcahy, is the only professional Equity theatre of its scope and scale within a 50-mile radius. PSF is one of only a handful of theatres on the continent producing Shakespeare, musicals, classics, and contemporary plays, all of which can normally be seen in rep and in multiple spaces within a few visits in a single summer season. Similarly, PSF was among just a handful of theatres on the continent in recent summers to produce three Shakespeare plays in a single summer season.\u00a0 A patron would have to travel seven to nine hours from PSF to find a comparable range of offerings at a single theatre within a few weeks\u2019 time.<\/p>\n

The Festival\u2019s award-winning company of many world-class artists includes Broadway, film, and television veterans, and winners and nominees of the Tony, Emmy, Obie, Outer Critics Circle, Drama Desk, Jefferson, Hayes, Lortel, and Barrymore awards. A leading Shakespeare theatre with a national reputation for excellence, PSF has received coverage in The Washington Post<\/em>, NPR<\/em>, American Theatre Magazine<\/em>, Playbill.com, The Philadelphia Inquirer<\/em>, and in recent seasons The New York<\/em> Times <\/em>has identified PSF as one of the leading summer theatre festivals in the nation. \u201cA world-class theater experience on a par with the top Bard fests,\u201d is how one New York Drama Desk reviewer characterized PSF.<\/p>\n

Founded in 1992 and the Official Shakespeare Festival of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, PSF\u2019s mission is to enrich, inspire, engage, and entertain the widest possible audience through first-rate productions of classical and contemporary plays, with a core commitment to Shakespeare and other master dramatists, and through an array of education and mentorship programs. A not-for-profit theatre, PSF receives significant support from its host, DeSales University, from the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, and the National Endowment for the Arts. With 150 performances of seven productions, the Festival attracts patrons each summer from 30+ states. In 29 years, PSF has offered 175 total productions (74 Shakespeare), and entertained 1,000,000+ patrons from 50 states, now averaging 34,000-40,000 in attendance each summer season, plus another 13,000 students each year through its WillPower Tour to schools. PSF is a multi-year recipient of awards from the National Endowment for the Arts: Shakespeare in American Communities, and is a constituent of Theatre Communications Group, and the Shakespeare Theatre Association. In 2013, leaders of the world\u2019s premier Shakespeare theatres gathered at PSF as the Festival hosted the international STA Conference.<\/p>\n

The Festival\u2019s vision is for world-class theatre.<\/p>\n
