...hole in the earth where the Actors’ Shakespeare Project performs the Shakespeare classic “Titus Andronicus”—otherwise known as the basement of the Garage—is as important to the overall mood of the play as the set on which the actors perform. The choice of venue exemplifies director David R. Gammons’ stripped-down aesthetic, a simplicity that works with the brutal scenes of the Bard’s script and the vicious passion of the all-male cast to create an image sure to leave a lasting...
...violence of the plot is not lost on the Actors’ Shakespeare Project show, which is produced by Sara Stackhouse and runs through April 22.

...always, it's TIME's art department that gives a project like this shape and life. Janet Michaud designed the package, Crary Pullen researched and selected the sweep of photos within it, and Jackson Dykman executed the maps and graphics. We'll keep covering the global-warming story as long as there's a story to cover. Scientists tell us we'll be at it for a while, but this year we may have begun the long road home...
