FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Contact:\u00a0Tina.slak@pashakespeare.org<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Center Valley, PA\u2014 Following last season\u2019s King Richard II<\/em>, Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival presents the next chapter of Shakespeare\u2019s epic cycle with\u00a0Henry IV, Part 1.\u00a0<\/em>The production will continue the tradition of concluding the season with \u201cExtreme Shakespeare,\u201d in the Schubert Theatre on July 24 through August 4 at the Labuda Center for the Performing Arts on the Center Valley campus of DeSales University.<\/p>\n

The irrepressible Falstaff, the prodigal Prince Hal, and the rebellious Hotspur navigate the shifting sands of allegiance in King Henry IV\u2019s England. Honor is at stake as commoners and kings, folly and duty collide in Shakespeare\u2019s richly layered coming-of-age tale. Prince Hal is called upon to emerge from the raucous hilarity of Falstaff and his antics at the Boar\u2019s Head Tavern to the valor of the battlefield, to earn his place as the next great ruler of this \u201csceptered isle.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the \u201cExtreme Shakespeare\u201d tradition, this production will be rehearsed akin to the way Shakespeare\u2019s company would have\u00ad\u2014actors arrive with their lines learned, rehearse on their own, wear what they can find, and open in a matter of days. No director, no designers. Just great actors, a brilliant play, and pure adrenaline, spontaneity, and creativity.<\/p>\n

John Ahlin<\/strong>\u00a0returns to perform the wildly comedic and insightful Sir John Falstaff. Ahlin, who played the role in the Festival\u2019s 2005 production, has a long history in the Festival\u2019s Shakespeare productions, including\u00a0Twelfth Night<\/em>,\u00a0King John<\/em>, and\u00a0The Merry Wives of Windsor<\/em>. His Broadway credits include\u00a0Waiting for Godot<\/em>,\u00a0Journey\u2019s End<\/em>,\u00a0The Lieutenant of Inishmore<\/em>,\u00a0Voices in the Dark<\/em>,\u00a0One Mo\u2019 Time<\/em>,\u00a0Whoopee!<\/em>, and\u00a0Macbeth<\/em>.<\/p>\n

John Keabler<\/strong>\u00a0will play King Henry IV, who must quash rebellion from his enemies foreign and domestic while trying to steer his son, Prince Hal, away from the influence of fallen knight Sir John Falstaff. Keabler was last seen in the Festival\u2019s 2017 productions of\u00a0The Three Musketeers<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0As You Like It<\/em>. Other regional credits include performances at Shakespeare Theatre Company of DC, The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey, The Old Globe,andPortland Stage.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile the spirit of \u2018Extreme Shakespeare\u2019 echoes what we believe to be the original rehearsal practices of Shakespeare\u2019s company, this year\u2019s cast will flip another Elizabethan tradition on its head with women playing a number of roles that were written as men,\u201d says Patrick Mulcahy, producing artistic director.<\/p>\n

Mairin Lee<\/strong>\u00a0will return to PSF in the role of Prince Hal, and\u00a0Kathryn Tkel\u00a0<\/strong>will make her PSF debut in the role of Hotspur. Hal and Hotspur both represent a new generation of prospective rulers, and each navigate their future and potential leadership in King Henry IV\u2019s England.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile women (in this case excellent actresses) playing the roles of rising leaders was a driver in this casting choice, this is not a new idea. How did men playing women illuminate the text in the original Shakespeare productions of these plays?\u201d asks Mulcahy. \u201cHow will women playing roles written as men do the same in this production?\u00a0 Come join us to find out.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lee, who starred as Viola de Lesseps in\u00a0Shakespeare in Love<\/em>\u00a0last season, played the title role in PSF\u2019s 2017 \u201cExtreme Shakespeare\u201d production of\u00a0Troilus and Cressida<\/em>. Her other credits include PSF\u2019s\u00a0Pride and Prejudice<\/em>,\u00a0Hamlet,\u00a0<\/em>and last season\u2019s\u00a0King Richard II<\/em>; Broadway\u2019s\u00a0The Heiress<\/em>; and Off-Broadway performances at Cherry Lane Theatre, Ars Nova, Wheelhouse Theater and The Actors Company Theatre; and regionally at McCarter Theatre, Two River Theater, and American Conservatory Theater.<\/p>\n

Tkel, making her debut at the Festival, has been seen regionally at numerous theatres including Ford\u2019s Theatre, Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company, Round House Theatre, Olney Theatre Center, California Conservatory Theatre, Perseverance Theatre and San Francisco Playhouse. She received her MFA from The Shakespeare Theatre\u2019s Academy for Classical Acting.<\/p>\n

Joining them in the cast, are\u00a0Jane Ridley<\/strong>\u00a0(Mistress Quickley and Westmoreland) who was in the 2005 production of\u00a0Henry V\u00a0<\/em>and has performed regionally at Shakespeare Theatre Company of DC, The Old Globe, Walnut Street Theatre, Orlando Shakespeare Theater, and Round House Theatre; and\u00a0Brandon J. Pierce<\/strong>\u00a0(Blunt and Sheriff) whose credits include PSF\u2019s\u00a0Troilus and Cressida<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0The Taming of the Shrew<\/em>, Off-Broadway\u2019s\u00a0Exit Strategy\u00a0<\/em>at Primary Stages, and regionally at People\u2019s Light, Arden Theatre Company, Delaware Theatre Company, and The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey.<\/p>\n

About Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival<\/u><\/strong>
\nPennsylvania 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 all 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 this summer 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\u00a0The Washington Post<\/em>,\u00a0NPR<\/em>,\u00a0American Theatre Magazine<\/em>, Playbill.com,\u00a0The Philadelphia Inquirer<\/em>, and in recent seasons\u00a0The New York<\/em>\u00a0Times\u00a0<\/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 27 years, PSF has offered 168 total productions (72 Shakespeare), and entertained 900,000+ 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. 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, the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance, 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 work.<\/p>\n
