CST's World's Stage Series 'Sweet William'

Chicago Shakespeare Theater Presents Michael Pennington’s

Sweet William

Chicago Shakespeare Theater (CST) continues the World's Stage Series with Sweet William, a one-man show created and performed by Michael Pennington. This large-spirited salute to the Bard is a perfect blend of biography, analysis and performance. Pennington's career as one of Britain's leading Shakespearean actors spans more than 40 years, including some 20,000-plus hours onstage performing Shakespeare for the Royal Shakespeare Company, the National Theatre and his own award-winning English Shakespeare Company.

International programming at Chicago Shakespeare Theater is supported, in part, by the Julius Frankel Foundation and The Rhoades Foundation.
