ABOUT THIS PLAY

"Available Light Theatre’s stark staging and deft acting help make it a rare treat for discerning theatergoers... Director Brian Evans cuts to the emotional core of his intimate, modern-dress version...the strangely modern play sheds a fierce light on many of the Bard’s perennial themes of human folly."

– Michael Grossberg, Columbus Dispatch

Available Light takes on one of Shakespeare's least performed plays in stripped-down style, in the Central Ohio professional premiere of Cymbeline.

In this dark and twisty tragic comedy — a love story for adults — lovers Imogen and Posthumous have their fidelity tested through bouts of mistaken identity, confused jealousy, and a cross-continental war.

The focus for this production will be on the performances, directed by Brian Evans of Ohio University, a stellar cast of seven provides the rare opportunity to get the heart of this complex, classical drama.
