"A Tale of Two Cities": Dickens' Thrilling Classic Brought to Life

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times ... and the greatest of plays. Annapolis Shakespeare Company presents an exhilarating stage adaptation of Charles Dickens' most exciting novel, "A Tale of Two Cities". When French emigrant Charles Darnay returns to his native Paris to help a friend, his aristocratic past is cause for the new regime to imprison him in the infamous Bastille, where he's sentenced to be put to death by guillotine. With time running out, Darnay's friends and family desperately try to free him before the iron falls. Crowded with soldiers, servants, revolutionaries and nobility, "A Tale of Two Cities" captures the dangerous spirit of times not so different from our own. Souls are tested and guillotines are sharpened in this classic saga directed by Sally Boyett at Studio 111.
