At the Shakespeare Theatre Company, February 23–March 27
This production brings the racial tensions Shakespeare identified in the early 17th century right up to modern-day, Trump-infused America: It features Pakistani-American actor Faran Tahir (the villain Raza in Iron Man) as the outsider in a white society, placing a Muslim actor in a role more recently played by African-Americans. $44 to $118.
