Boulder's Upstart Crow Theatre Company is pleased to announce our 33rd Season (2012-2013).

 Boulder's Upstart Crow Theatre Company is pleased to announce our 33rd Season (2012-2013). Boulder’s Upstart Crow has a long tradition of bringing plays of depth and substance to area theatregoers. The 2012-2013 season is an exciting mix of drama, humor, insight, inspiration, and character. The season opens with The Glass Menagerie, Tennessee Williams’ hauntingly poetic tale of longing and disappointment inspired by Williams’ memories of his beloved sister. Performance dates are August 31 through September 8. In A Woman of No Importance, Oscar Wilde takes aim at the social mores of Victorian England that ostracized a “fallen woman” while allowing the man who tripped her up to walk free. A Woman of No Importance plays November 30 through December 15. Caesar and Cleopatra by George Bernard Shaw plays February 22 through March 9. Shaw’s version of the relationship between the man who conquererd most of the known world and the naïve young woman struggling for control of the tumultuous Egyptian empire is full of backstairs intrigue, conflicting wills, and Shaw’s views on statesmanship as Caesar tries to mold Cleopatra into a leader. The season closes with William Shakespeare’s perennial favorite, Henry V, the story of the conquest of France by one of England’s most popular kings. Love and battles, humor and drama, and some of the most inspiring speeches Shakespeare ever wrote. Performances will be May 24 through June 8. Boulder's Upstart Crow performs in the The Dairy Center for the Arts, 2590 Walnut St., Boulder, Colorado 80302. Performance are Thursday-Saturday at 7:30 PM with one Sunday 2:00 PM matinee during the middle weekend. Thursdays are NAME YOUR PRICE NIGHT: pay as much (or as little) as you want before you leave (really! see www.theupstartcrow.org/tickets.php.). Group rates are also available.
