Since 1990, Olney Theatre Center’s National Players has produced a summer Shakespeare tour, with the purpose of bringing plays of a classical nature to regional audiences in outdoor venues.
With the same dedication demonstrated by National Players tours, the Summer Shakespeare tour develops new appreciation for "the bard" by presenting classical dramas and comedies to families in a festival setting.
National Players’ Summer Shakespeare tour engages veterans actors of the annual tour and alumni and students of the Boston University Theatre Conservatory in a spirit of summer fun. This collaboration between seasoned and new talent reinvigorates Shakespeare's texts with new insight and new excitement.
