The Guthrie's productions of Shakespeare have also featured some of the nation's best actors from the Twin Cities and beyond. From Jessica Tandy and George Grizzard in the Guthrie's first season to notable names throughout the years - Shakespeare at the Guthrie has offered great actors in great roles.
