Education Programs
Heart-stirring, crowd-rousing, life-changing theater-in-education programs are a bedrock tradition at Shakespeare & Company. Our Education Program brings the classical poetry and plays of Shakespeare into the lives of students and teachers in ways that are personally meaningful, educationally inspiring, and theatrically compelling.
