SUMMER HIATUS

In order to properly address the needs of our aging stage structure, First Folio will be taking a hiatus from producing a summer show in 2020. The current structure has served us well for 23 seasons, but it is coming to the end of its usefulness and we need to ensure that we have the time and funds to replace it properly. We are committed to maintaining a safe working environment for our company of players without compromising the artistic standards we have established through the years. We will return in 2021 with a new stage and continue on with the same quality Shakespeare-under-the-Stars which launched First Folio back in 1997! You can assist with this endeavor by making your donation to help us meet our financial goals.

Thank You

During these troubling times, we recognize that art is more vital than ever in helping us share our collective stories. And yet, it is also a time when creating and sharing that art has become more difficult. First Folio Theatre is grateful to all of the donors and supporters whose generosity is helping us to weather these winds.
