National Theatre Conservatory grads to star in NTC Rep 2010

At the culmination of their three-year graduate school experience, ten National Theatre Conservatory (NTC) graduates will star in NTC Rep 2010, which will feature Hamlet and Tartuffe.

Just when you thought you knew Shakespeare comes the NTC Rep’s Hamlet — an electrifying ghost story brought to life as a living graphic novel. Working with acclaimed British director Robert Richmond the NTC actors shake the dust from this story of murder, betrayal and revenge to discover why it is arguably the greatest play in the English language.

Tartuffe, the villainous scoundrel, use faith as a means to infiltrate a nobleman’s home where he tries to seduce the wife, gull the husband and steal all the money. Tartuffe is ultimately brought down; the day is saved by the King but not before everyone is exposed.

Both plays will be performed in The Conservatory Theatre at 1101 13th Street in the Robert & Judi Newman Center for Theatre Education, adjacent to the Denver Performing Arts Complex. Tickets may be purchased by calling 303.893.4100, 800.641.1222, TTY 303.893.9582 or online at www.denvercenter.org.
