Schreiber has a long history of performing the Bard’s work for the Public, including previous Shakespeare in the Park productions of Cymbeline and Henry V and mainstage productions of Hamlet and Othello (in which he was a memorable Iago). He won a 2005 Tony Award for his performance as Ricky Roma in Glengarry Glen Ross. Ehle won the Tony Award for The Real Thing and was also seen on Broadway in the Roundabout Theatre Company’s revival of Design for Living.

The Public’s second Shakespeare in the Park show this year will be Tony Kushner’s new adaptation of Bertolt Brecht’s Mother Courage, starring Meryl Streep and directed by George C. Wolfe, which will run August 8-September 3.
