Resurgens Theatre Company returns this spring (with the generous support of the Hudson Strode Program in Renaissance Studies at the University of Alabama, as well as the University of Southern Mississippi and the Mississippi Humanities Council) to stream our newly filmed performance of Jonson’s timeless and timely plague-driven classic. Join us for the satirical exploits of the “venture tripartite,” as they humorously scam gullible customers greedy for the power and riches of the philosophers’ stone. Directed by Dr. Brent Griffin, this “original practices” production heartily embraces Jonson’s verbal aplomb and poetic virtuosity, demonstrating why Coleridge deemed this play one of the three best plots in all literature.
