Shakespeare In The Schools

The Comedy of Errors

Staying focused on our mission of engaging young people where they are in the 21st century, our upcoming Shakespeare in the Schools production 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, The Comedy of Errors!

For the first time in the history of our SIS program, live music will become an integral part of the production; bringing a fresh energy to Shakespeare’s work while making it accessible, relevant, and engaging for today’s students. It’s another way we continue to reimagine how young people experience Shakespeare and, we hope, inspire a new generation of theatre enthusiasts.

If there is a school in your community that you feel would benefit from our Shakespeare in the Schools program, please contact:
