Event Details:

The Elise Event is a special evening for friends and supporters of Montana Shakespeare in the Parks to come together, celebrate the work of MSIP, and raise support for our Shakespeare in the Schools program.

Join us Sunday, November 8th at 4:00PM in the SUB Ballroom on MSU's Campus for a one-of-a-kind dinner theater experience featuring the 2026 Shakespeare in the Schools production of The Comedy of Errors. This special performance will pair Shakespeare with the likes of Led Zeppelin, Kansas, Fleetwood Mac, and others in a new classic-rock adaptation of one of his funniest plays.

Your evening will include a full dinner, partially hosted bar, and opportunities to mingle with the cast and director, Kevin Asselin, and members of the MSIP creative team and cast. Following the performance, enjoy a lively Q&A with the cast and creative team and learn more about the impact of Shakespeare in the Schools.
