About San Francisco Shakespeare Festival

The San Francisco Shakespeare Festival was founded in 1983 with the mission to make the words and themes of Shakespeare accessible to everyone, regardless of age, ethnicity, financial status, or level of education. Through our core programs – Free Shakespeare in the Park, Bay Area Shakespeare Camps, Shakespeare On Tour, Shakespeare For All, Midnight Shakespeare, and Tailor-Made Residencies – SF Shakes engages with communities throughout California to share the Bard’s timeless and universal stories and poetic language.
