With performers from such prestigious companies as The Royal Shakespeare Company; The Royal National theater of Great Britain and Shakespeare's Globe Theater, Actors from the London Stage was developed thirty-two years ago by Professor Homer Swander and Patrick Stewart, the renowned British Actor who most know as
Captian Jean-Luc Picard from Star Trek. Their performances of Shakespeare are like no other: using five actors who play multiple parts, AFTLS brings forth the power of Shakespeare's characters and language.  AFTLS has visited John Carroll twice before, in the spring of 2005 with Othello and the fall of 2006 with Hamlet, presenting memorable performances of these two classic Shakespearean Tragedies. Do not miss the The Winter's Tale this September! Reserve your tickets today.

                                "What you do
Still betters what is done. When you speak, sweet.
I'ld have you do it ever: when you sing,
I'ld have you buy and sell so, so give alms,
Pray so; and, for the ordering your affairs,
To sing them too: when you do dance, I wish you
A wave o' the sea, that you might ever do
Nothing but that; move still, still so,
And own no other function: each your doing,
So singular in each particular,
Crowns what you are doing in the present deed,
That all your acts are queens."
 -Winter's Tale   4.4.135-146
