    Introduction Welcome to Best of Both Worlds! Directing this production on the Loeb Mainstage is a very special moment for me. As an undergraduate at Harvard, I dreamed of someday directing in this theater. I am thrilled to share my first production on the Mainstage with you, and am honored to do so in the company of such an inspired team of artists. Best of Both Worlds is part of our Shakespeare Exploded! Festival — an array of theatrical events inspired by Shakespeare. If you haven’t already, I encourage you to see The Donkey Show, our disco adapta- tion of A Midsummer Night’s Dream at our new club theater venue OBERON, and Sleep No More, an immersive production inspired by Macbeth and Hitchcock’s thrillers at Brookline’s Old Lincoln School. Both of these phenomenal shows will continue to play every weekend until January 3rd. Other exciting events include our reading of Robert Brustein’s play Mortal Terror on December 6 on the Loeb Mainstage, and Marcus Stern’s production of Heiner Muller’s Hamletmachine in the Loeb Experimental Theater from December 17–20. I can’t thank you enough for being part of the A.R.T. this season. On behalf of the entire staff, I wish you all the best for the holidays!
