Cymbeline News & Features

Cymbeline combines comedy, tragedy and history into an epic tale of power and magic as two warring powers clash until its eventual joyful conclusion. The characters in this late Romance include a Lear-like monarch, a wicked queen, an Iago-like villain, a deceived husband and a heroine, the king's daughter Imogen, Shakespeare's last great female role. An award-winning cast including Martha Plimpton, Phylicia Rashad, John Cullum and Michael Cerveris brings this spectacular play to life on the vast stage of Lincoln Center's Vivian Beaumont Theater.
