Cellini (play)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cellini is a 2001 play by American playwright John Patrick Shanley. It is based on the process that the sculptor Benvenuto Cellini went through in order to create his work Perseus with the Head of Medusa. In its 2001 performances, the role of Cellini was played by Reg Rogers[1] and its cast of 27 characters was played by only eight actors in this production.[2] Reviews of the play were generally mediocre.[1][3]
