MissionThe Actors’ Shakespeare Project believes Shakespeare’s words are urgently relevant to our times. Working as an ensemble of resident company members, ASP brings these words into the voices, bodies, and imaginations of actors, audiences and neighborhoods. ASP does this through creative projects, including intimate productions and outreach programs that are informed by the spaces in which they happen. These projects inspire civic dialogue, build relationships between people, strengthen communities, and reveal something about what it means to be human here and now.
The Actors’ Shakespeare Project is dedicated to education both at the high school and college levels. We believe that the teaching of Shakespeare as performance is essential to fully appreciating the values of these extraordinary plays.
