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.
