Shakespeare BASH'd

Shakespeare BASH'd

Shakespeare BASH'd is an artist-driven initiative that seeks to make classical theatre welcoming, inviting, and social. A "Bash" is a crushing blow.

Tickets are now available for our one-day-only reading of Galatea, on Sunday, March 29th at 2pm at the Monarch Tavern.

This wild frolic in the woods is packed with amorous, confused, and hilarious situations that make up this early modern gem. BASH’d is thrilled to present John Lyly’s uber modern take on love, sexuality, and gender.

Tickets are limited. Get yours now at https://www.shakespearebashd.com/store/p124/galatea.html

We can't believe it's been a week since we closed Troilus and Cressida!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our sold-out run! It was wonderful to share this rare play with you and hear your responses.

We can't wait for the next one!

This weekend is your last chance to sign-up for The Play's the Thing: Shakespeare for Everyone!

This class meets weekly over six sessions, where we read the play (Henry IV, Part 1), and discuss themes, characters, interpretation, and performance choices.

This class is open to anyone of any experience level. Actors and non-actors have loved past sessions!

We start on Tuesday, so sign-up today and join us as we dig into this wonderful play!

Today (Feb 8) at 1pm is your last chance to see Troilus and Cressida (who knows when the next chance will come along).

We'll have a few rush tickets released at the door and would love to have you join us! Head over to The Theatre Centre for an epic afternoon.
