Veteran Twin Cities actor Steve Hendrickson nails the patrician Sir Tyrone Guthrie. He strides on stage, tall and flamboyant, a commanding presence whose whole being is theatrical. Director Ron Peluso has Hendrickson embrace Guthrie's flamboyance to the fullest, whether he's reeling from Rapson's first true hit, or sarcastically pacing out Rapson's proposed dimensions of the future stage, while reciting from Shakespeare's Richard III in Central Park.

Hendrickson brings animated swagger to "Tony" (in the early going, he visibly relishes Guthrie's contention that "the American theater is shit," then masterfully recites Richard III monologues as Guthrie walks an empty field to demonstrate for Rapson the dimensions his stage will require).
