The Chicago Associates have been supporting the Stratford Shakespeare Festival for more than 25 years. In particular, they are dedicated to supporting actor training through the Birmingham Conservatory for Classical Theatre.
Each August, the Associates organize an annual weekend in Stratford, traditionally held to coincide with the Festival’s late-season openings.
This year's events include:
Theatre “As You Like It”
Friday, August 20, 5 p.m. to 7:15 p.m. ($58 plus tax)
Gather together with company members as you enter the enchanting Forest of Arden. A delicious “feast” will be served.
Celebrate the Leading Ladies of Stratford
Saturday, August 21, 10:30 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. ($48 plus tax)
Many great female actors have trod the boards of Stratford. You’ll be charmed by a special selection of these amazingly talented women. Lunch provided.
