Founded in 2006 as The People’s Shakespeare Project, Lancaster Shakespeare Theatre is committed to fostering a love of Shakespeare through performance and performance-based instruction.

We believe that by developing active, personal connections with Shakespeare’s texts, the beauty, breadth and wisdom of his plays and characters can be readily accessed. The knowledge and insight gained in these explorations are extremely enriching for students, actors and audiences alike.

But just as importantly as intellectual lives are broadened, so, too, are personal lives. His genius in creating a world of characters true to our own flawed selves cannot help but enable us to develop a deeper understanding and compassion for those around us.

The world sorely needs this. The world needs Shakespeare.
