ShakesCheer

Virtual, abridged performances bringing laughter and light to the living room!

Our most recent performance was Twelfth Night on Sunday, January 10th, 2021. Recordings of ALL performances can be enjoyed on our YouTube channel!

For this third round of ShakesCheer, we shared proceeds equally with local nonprofit Milagro House. Based in Lancaster, PA, Milagro House provides Education, Housing, and Support Services for women and children who would otherwise be experiencing homelessness.

Previous ShakesCheer shows…

In spring 2020, with live events and shows cancelled due to the necessity for social distancing, we launched ShakesCheer with A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The cast from our summer 2017 production reunited and rose to the challenge of performing Shakespeare remotely . Donations from Midsummer’s audience members were shared equally with the Lancaster Cares Covid-19 Response Fund. This fund was set up by the Lancaster County Community Foundation and the United Way to provide residents with food, housing, and rapid response dollars during the crisis.

Next, we were thrilled to work with many talented TPSP alums and two new technical wizzes who brought Verona to live-stream life for The Taming of the Shrew. After Taming, we contributed half of proceeds to the Crispus Attucks Community Center. CACC strives to improve the quality of life for youth and families in Lancaster by providing services that promote community prosperity, physical and mental health, and by offering programs which preserve the African American heritage.

In this challenging time, we are thankful for all our supporters and excited to keep making theatre for and with YOU.
