The City Theatre continues its 2016 season with Robert Bolt's legendary award-winning drama A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS. The show runs three more weeks at The City Theatre, tonight, February 18, through March 6. BroadwayWorld has a look at the cast in action below!

A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS by Robert Bolt started out as a radio drama for BBC Radio in 1954. It was adapted into an hour-long live television version in 1957 and finally was reworked by Bolt for the stage in 1960. After success on the West End and on Broadway, it was subsequently made into an Academy Award winning 1966 film and a 1988 television movie. The title refers to Bolt's portrayal of More as the ultimate man of conscience remaining true to his beliefs while adapting to increasingly horrific circumstances. Bolt borrowed the title from Robert Whittington, a contemporary of More.
