They play in repertory for a run through Jan. 16, 2016.

Also in the company are Pierre Atri, Jaygann Ayeh, Jessie Buckley, Vera Chok, Jack Colgrave Hirst, Rudi Goodman, Matthew Hawksley, Pip Jordan, Ansu Kabia, Stuart Neal, Zo褢 Rainey, Miranda Raison, John Shrapnel, Kathryn Wilder and Jimmy Yuill.

In an earlier press statement, Branagh commented, "This is a formidable group of actors - they combine fantastic experience in Shakespeare and comedy, with a youthful energy and brilliance that I'm excited to welcome to our season."
