The Festival will open August 12 and run for 5 weeks in Nashville and 1 week in Franklin, and include two productions by two great playwrights. August Wilson’s JITNEY, directed by Chuck Smith, from the Goodman Theater in Chicago will play the first two weeks in collaboration with Kennie Playhouse Theatre, followed by 12th NIGHT by William Shakespeare, directed by Jim Warren, founding Artistic Director of the American Shakespeare Center.
