NOW PLAYING

In a review of the Royal Shakespeare Company’s recent staging of Edward II, the Guardian laments that the play is “reduced to a pretext for the [show’s] images,” and Marlowe’s “poetry is mangled, lines gabbled or else drowned out by omnipresent sonic effects.” Couldn’t make it to Stratford-upon-Avon to see for yourself? Want to hear the music of his “mighty line” here in Georgia (clearly and without conceptual impediments)? Then, join Resurgens this April for one of the earliest history plays composed for the early modern stage. Directed by Dr. Brent Griffin, our all-male “original practices” production mixes “wanton poets” and “pleasant wits” with political machinations—all to sound the timely proposition, “What greater bliss can hap … / Than live and be the favorite of a king?”

All performances will be at our new venue, the historic Pythagoras Masonic Temple (108 E. Ponce de Leon Ave.) in Decatur.

Show dates are April 25-26 at 8:00 p.m., and April 27 at 2:00 p.m.

Tickets are only $20, and are available online below 

or at the Box Office prior to the show.


Purchase Tickets

Paid parking is available behind the building or in the Town Center Deck (546 Church St.). Parking on the street is free after 6:00 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and all day Sunday.
