This Thursday: Shakespeare Theatre’s Michael Kahn at the George Town Club


Michael Kahn, artistic director since 1986 of D.C.’s Shakespeare Theatre Company, will be the featured guest at Georgetown Media Group’s next Cultural Leadership Breakfast, this Thursday, March 9, at the George Town Club, 1530 Wisconsin Ave. NW. At the 8 a.m. event, the 18th in the series, the legendary director and acting teacher will share his experiences and insights in a conversation with Georgetowner arts writer Gary Tischler.

The 2016-17 series is sponsored by Bonhams, which will offer complimentary jewelry appraisals following the program.

Kahn, who turns 80 this year, announced last month that he would step down in July of 2019 so that his successor can present STC’s 2019-2020 season “as their own.”

Admission to the March 9 breakfast is $25 ($20 for George Town Club members). To RSVP, email richard@georgetowner.com or call 202-338-4833 by March 7.
