“I would just like to say how delighted I am to be given the unique and joyous opportunity of taking on the artistic reins of Shakespeare Santa Cruz. The remarkable tenure of Mr. Whitworth has brought this theatre to unprecedented artistic heights -- and now it is my intention to honor that outstanding achievement while guiding Shakespeare Santa Cruz into a future filled with exciting plays, magnificent artistry, and imaginative storytelling … all the while keeping the words of William Shakespeare as our inspiration… we are the dreamers of dreams …!” – Marco Barricelli
