Actors Theatre Completes 2017-18 Season Lineup with THE MAGIC PLAY

Artistic Director Les Waters and Managing Director Kevin E. Moore are thrilled to share that Andrew Hinderaker's The Magic Play will round out Actors Theatre of Louisville's 2017 - 2018 Season. Critically acclaimed magician and actor Brett Schneider stars in this one-of-a-kind theatrical experience that combines love, loss and world-class magic into an evening of pure heart-warming spectacle. The Chicago Sun-Times states, "True to its title, "The Magic Play," Andrew Hinderaker's highly original, altogether remarkable new work, is full of sleight-of-hand astonishments." Directed by Halena Kays, The Magic Play will run from January 23 - February 11, 2018 in the Pamela Brown Auditorium as part of the Brown-Forman Series.

"The Magic Play is theatrical wonder at its very best," says Artistic Director Les Waters. "Not only is it world-class magic that everyone will enjoy, but also a moving human drama of loss and love. I am excited to share this play with our community and think Andrew Hinderaker's brilliance will be a perfect complement to the other wildly entertaining stories in our 2017 - 2018 Season."
