SUMMER SHAKESPEARE WELLINGTON AUDITION ANNOUNCEMENT For our 2023 production, we will be presenting The Tempest at the Dell in the Botanic Gardens, directed by Megan Evans.

This production will explore the nuanced and complex interrelationships of human and more-than-human residents of this beautiful planet we humans must learn to share less selfishly.
