Prologue: John Douglas Thompson

Presented by Theatreworks and UCCS Visual and Performing Arts: Theatre and Dance Program at Ent Center for the Arts, Colorado Springs CO

Apr 23 2023
Prologue: John Douglas Thompson

Legendary actor, John Douglas Thompson, returns to Colorado for a special Prologue on the occasion of our production of August Wilson’s “King Hedley II.”

Internationally regarded as one of the finest Shakespearian actors of his generation, John is also an expert on the plays of August Wilson, having received a Tony Award nomination for his portrayal of Becker in Jitney.  

Local audiences will remember his virtuosic performance as Louis Armstrong in Satchmo at the Waldorf that performed at Theatreworks in 2016.

We are thrilled to welcome him back to talk about the works of August Wilson, from an actor’s perspective.
