“Great art belongs to everyone, regardless of age, race, class or language – it’s a public good, [such as] water or electricity. I’m thrilled to partner with Marta V. Martinez and Rhode Island Latino Arts to bring free, bilingual Shakespeare to the people of Rhode Island,” Trinity Rep Associate Artistic Director Tyler Dobrowsky said in a statement.
According to a Trinity Rep news release, the production features a “diverse cast,” local actors and Brown/Trinity MFA students as well as staff from the Trinity Rep Young Actor Summer Institute.
Performances of Teatro en el Verano are free and open to the public. The series was made possible by a grant from the Providence Department of Art, Culture + Tourism and the Providence Tourism Council.
