RUDY PANKOW in A.R.T.’s Romeo and Juliet

Originally Announced: July 9, 2024

We’re so proud to celebrate Rudy Pankow, an LPN Studios student, for his starring role as Romeo in the American Repertory Theater’s production of Romeo and Juliet alongside Emilia Suárez and Terrence Mann.

This bold new staging brought a fresh, visceral energy to the Shakespeare classic — and Rudy led the charge with his signature heart, presence, and emotional depth.

Watching one of our own take on such a legendary role reminds us why we do what we do: to help actors fully access their truth, trust their instincts, and rise to every moment.

Bravo, Rudy! You continue to inspire us with your courage, craft, and commitment to the work.
