Walking Shadow Shakespeare Project
Share
Founded in 2011, the mission of Walking Shadow Shakespeare Project is to unite classical texts with a contemporary community through innovative and accessible productions, social events, and educational opportunities. We want every actor - regardless of race, gender, or ability - to feel the power that can come from living these characters on stage. We want them to get to be swept up in the poetry

Our 8 year retro of one rehearsal shows comes to a close with 2025’s Henry 6.1.
We moved to Pease Park and had a massive cast of 34 actors bringing this history to life. They came from all over the US, ranged in age from 7 to over 70, and put on a stunning show.
It was hot, it was sweaty, and it was amazing.
Tonight we are back at Pease Park for 7pm to give y’all the latest!!!

2024: Troilus & Cressida
Firmly in my ‘daddy I can fix him’ era, we did a cheeky lil rewrite of the ending to this play and it was so beautiful, so powerful, so full of love and action.
This is the year we outgrew a small park venue, affirming how desperately people want, need, and deserve free theatre.

2021: another zoom show, this time The Winter’s Tale!
This cast had actors representing several US states, Canada, and England!
This cast was amazing and the show was beautiful - it was a really special send off from digital theatre for us.
