Welcome to The Shakespeare Project of Chicago

Now celebrating our 17th season, The Shakespeare Project of Chicago presents free theatrical readings of William Shakespeare and other classic dramatists at our three Chicago venues:  The Newberry Library (Chicago), The Wilmette Public Library and The Highland Park Public Library.

We also provide education outreach on Shakespeare studies to local schools and universities.

Our readings and students workshops, presented by professional actors who are members of Actors' Equity Association, stimulate, challenge and entertain audiences of all ages and backgrounds.  Click HERE to join our email list and receive updates on our FREE performances.
