2016-2017 Season
TACT’s 2016-2017 Season celebrated the company’s mission to reveal and reclaim great plays while also taking a contemporary glance at a new work. In the fall, the company presented Oliver Goldsmith’s She Stoops to Conquer, a classic 18th century comedy. The spring brought the world premiere of Jeff Talbott’s The Gravedigger’s Lullaby.
