Bring a Play to You

Current Programs

The Spring 2024 tour will travel from April 22 to June 1, 2024. Bookings will open in the early autumn.

Macbeth In-Person Tour

This approximately 70-minute production that comes to you is perfect for partnering with your classroom teaching.

How Does Booking a Tour Work?

WE:
Pack 6 actors, costumes, set pieces, sound equipment, props, and pipe and drape into a van and bring it all to your school for a 70ish-minute Shakespeare performance with an optional 15-minute post-show talkback.

YOU:
Provide a minimum 25′ x 25′ space for our playing space and backstage area, 6 chairs, access to bathrooms, access to a private changing area (which can be bathrooms that students are not using during actor setup) access to drinking water, and a place to park our touring van. (If you have a lighting setup and a board operator, we can use a “day” look and an “evening/night” look, and bring a prompt book for the light board op to use.)
