Institute graduates return to the Loeb stage in The Seagull
There’s nothing more exciting than watching your students grow and become successful in their field. So it’s always a joyful event to welcome our Institute graduates back to Cambridge to play on the A.R.T. stage. Mickey Solis (2005) returns to play Konstantin and Molly Ward (2004) is his beloved Nina in The Seagull. Mickey played Romeo in Romeo and Juliet and Eben in Szász’s Desire Under the Elms, and since his graduation has appeared in several regional theatres. Molly was seen as Benvolio in Romeo and Juliet during her second year, and she has previously returned to the A.R.T. to play Masha in Three Sisters on the Loeb Stage and at the Edinburgh Festival. She has worked at Barrington Stage, Provincetown Theatre, The Denver Center, Bard SummerScape, and Hartford Stage.
Current Institute students are also part of The Seagull company: Nina Kassa as Masha and Shawn Cody as Medvedenko. The company also includes Harvard undergraduate Dan Pecci, playing the role of Yakov.
Kati Mitchell is the A.R.T.’s Director of Press and Public Relations.
