| Ashland Shakespeare Festival Tour June 23-27, 2010 |
Founded in 1935, the Tony Award-winning Oregon Shakespeare Festival (OSF) is among the oldest and largest professional non-profit theatres in the nation. Each year OSF presents an eight-and-a-half-month season of eleven plays in three theatres. Four to five of the plays produced each year are by William Shakespeare, who provides the inspiration for classic and contemporary plays in repertory reflecting the diversity of American culture. The festival also presents numerous ancillary activities, and undertakes an extensive theatre education program providing a broad range of educational programs for secondary and college students and theatre professionals. The festival has an annual attendance of approximately 400,000 patrons. The SmARTSunlimited Ashland Shakespeare Festival Tour will be from June 23-27, 2010. It makes for a great family vacation or even a mommy/daughter trip. If you have never tried this festival before, I can assure you - you will love it. There is no stuffy Shakespeare here. Not all the shows are Shakespeare, but they have cutting edge Black Box, classic plays, musicals, and of course Shakespeare performed in three different theaters, all within walking distance. The restaurants are wonderful, the shopping is delightful and very artsy, and there is a lot of beautiful nature to hike, raft, run, swim, bike and walk through. Please write us for more information.

Here are some pictures from last year's plays. You can click on them for a larger version. |
