Jon Lovitz Would Be Proud




Currently at the Warehouse
Directors John Cole and Ron Danko are setting this play in modern day New York City. In this controversial play, Shakespeare explores the heart of humankind in a world where commerce is King.
“Merchant of Venice offers a complex and confounding window not only into our tendency to mix racism and religion, but also into love and greed, mercy and justice, and the contradictions of the human heart.” Robert Day, playing the title role as Antonio, The Merchant.
“I believe this play, in both Shakespeare’s time and in our own, is about the healing need and the quality of mercy, in a world of many wrongs on all sides and their emotionally justified but ultimately self-defeating desires to revenge.” Robert Hirschboeck, playing Shylock.
William Shakespeare’s “The Merchant of Venice” will be performed at RCC’s Warehouse on Bartlett (H Building) in Medford.
