How Does Booking a Tour Work?
WE WILL...
Pack 5 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 WILL...
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.)
