Listen Later

Today on The Roundtable with Robert Bannon, we’re joined by two theater legends — Austin Pendleton and Bradford Cover — to explore Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream through the lens of The Resident Acting Company. Pendleton, a Tony-nominated actor and director, and Cover, the company’s founding artistic director, share their passion for the Bard, their process in bringing this timeless comedy to life, and the magic that happens when a seasoned ensemble takes on a classic.

From the mayhem of lovers and fairies to the humor and heart that keep audiences enchanted, this conversation dives into why A Midsummer Night’s Dream remains a masterpiece for every generation. Expect laughter, behind-the-scenes stories, and plenty of midsummer mischief from two artists who have spent their lives making theater come alive.
