For schools, Kentucky Shakespeare offers core content-based workshops and residencies for Kindergarten - 12th grade. For teachers, we offer professional development designed to help teachers integrate performing and visual arts activities into their ever day curriculum. Shakespeare Alive!, our outreach tour, has served over half-a-million students in all 120 counties of Kentucky, as well as Indiana, Missouri, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, and West Virginia.
Shakespeare in Central Park is the cornerstone of the Festival. During the summer months, we bring “Free Will” to the community, with free Shakespeare performances at the C. Douglas Ramey Amphitheatre in historic Old Louisville’s Central Park. A family tradition to many, Shakespeare in Central Park has been free since the first performance in 1960.
Running concurrently with our summer season is Shakespeare Youth Academy. “SYA” offers education, production and performance opportunities for youth ages 5-18, including a high school theatre troupe that hosts a full week of performances in Central Park as the mainstage production.
