CT Rep Theater Gets New Artistic Director

Vincent J. Cardinal, the current Associate Dean of Performing Arts at Adelphi University, and formerly the Artistic Director of Miami’s Jerry Herman Ring Theatre and Associate Artist with Circle Repertory Company, will begin as both Artistic Director of Connecticut Repertory Theatre and head of the Department of Dramatic Arts beginning August 23, 2010.

“I’m honored to join the company of theatre artists and educators who have built this nationally respected Regional Theatre and Department of Drama,” Cardinal said. “I look forward to extending the tradition of robust production and dynamic education at UConn.”

Cardinal replaces Gary M. English, the founding Artistic Director of Connecticut Repertory Theatre who served in the position for 15 years. English continues at the University of Connecticut as a Professor of Drama.
