LET'S CELEBRATE

Back in 2015, A Midsummer Night’s Dream became the first Tallahassee Shakespeare in the Park production since the 1990s, and our Company has expanded our theatrical and educational offerings ever since. Support more decades of fun, accessible Shakespeare: enjoy our spectacular 10th anniversary season!

Thanks to the generosity of Michael Sheridan and Judy Wilson Sheridan and the Watson Arts Fund, gifts to Southern Shakespeare will be matched 1:1 starting July 1, 2024!

Kick off our tenth year of Shakespeare by showing your support with a recurring membership and reap the benefits like merch discounts, early seat selection, etc. — read all about it here:
