Lowly Devils, Lofty Music: Shakespeare’s Villains & Classical Mastery

Featured in Performances Magazine, L.A. Master Chorale, December 2025 Issue

THE WALL STREET Journal characterized Grammy Award winner Patrick Page as “a force of nature! One of America’s greatest classical actors.” Elsewhere dubbed “the villain of Broadway,” Page never shies from exploring his dark side. 

As creator and star of The Devils are Here: How Shakespeare Invented the Villain, Jan. 15-25 at BroadStage, he focuses on the motivations of the Bard’s greatest miscreants, delivering a masterclass on the most terrifying subject of them all: human nature. Also at the venue, two Grammy Award-winning classical musicians—pianist Garrick Ohlsson and violist Richard O’Neill—offer works by Schubert and Rachmaninoff on Jan. 31. Ohlsson recently served as first-ever American jury head for the prestigious Chopin Competition in Warsaw; O’Neill is violist for the Takács Quartet.
