Blackfriars Stage Company, formerly Shenandoah Shakespeare Express, at Centenary College Sept 20 - 24

Shakespeare's Blackfriars Stage Company (formerly the Shenandaoh Shakespeare Express) will visit Centenary College Sept. 20-24 on its 2005-06 "Atomic Fission" tour, says the college.

The Company will present multiple performances of three plays: Return to the Forbidden Planet, Richard III and Much Ado About Nothing.

Tickets go on sale Sept. 6. Call Centenary’s ticket line at 318-841-7289. Prices for adults are $15; seniors, $10; and students, $8.

Audiences for these performances are composed of students who've read the play as well as teachers and adults who enjoy Shakespeare. Packed into Kilpatrick Hall, the crowd is hyper-aware of the humor in each play. Expect the Blackfriars to offer fast and lighthearted productions.
