Lovers of Shakespeare’s work know that “the play’s the thing.” Hamlet was trying to catch the conscience of the king who killed his father, but the players at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival don’t have any such motives – they’re simply trying to entertain and delight their audience. The 2020 season starts in February, and you won’t want to miss it!
The Oregon Shakespeare Festival has been entertaining audiences for more than 70 years. It’s one of the oldest festivals of its kind, and has won Tony awards for its work.

The Allen Elizabethan Theatre has been an icon of the festival since its beginning. This is the third theatre to be built here, after fire destroyed the first one, and the second was deemed unsafe.
