Adapted from the Pulitzer Prize winning novel by Robert Penn Warren, “All the King’s Men” is set in the Louisiana of the 1930’s. The former Artistic Director of the famed Trinity Rep, Adrian Hall’s powerful play examines the life of opportunist Willie Stark, a character based on Governor Huey Long, one of America’s most extraordinary politicians. The smart and manipulative Willie Stark is elected governor with the support of the lower social classes, tough-talking assistant Sadie Burke and newspaper reporter Jack Burden. “All the King’s Men” examines the question: does absolute power corrupt absolutely?

 

Directed by Artistic Director Livia Genise, Camelot’s production of “All the King’s Men” stars Dayvin Turchiano as Jack Burden, Roy Rains, Jr. as Willie Stark and Cat Gould as Sadie Burke. Paul R. Jones plays the role of Judge Irwin. They are joined by cast members Susan Dumond, Casey Faubion, Max Gutfreund, Bob Herried, Rob Hirschboeck, Barbara Jackson, Tim Kelly, Meagan Kirby, Nicole Strykowski, Kendra Taylor, Ruedi Vest , Peter Wickliffe, Pam Ward and Tyler Ward.
