Wolf Hall, Part 1

Austin Shakespeare’s 2016 – 2017 season will kick off with a staged reading of Hilary Mantel’s Wolf Hall (Part I only), running September 22 – 25, 2016, Thursday – Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday at 3 p.m. at the Rollins Studio Theatre at the Long Center for the Performing Arts. Mantel’s best-selling novel, which was adapted for stage by Michael Poulton, is a reimagining of life under Henry VIII with an unlikely hero at the center, the intriguing Thomas Cromwell. After a sold-out Broadway run, Austin Shakespeare will produce the Southwest premiere of Wolf Hall with a fully costumed staged reading of the thrilling drama.
