provided by HSC and are open to any interested municipality or organization
seeking to add live theater to their venue or festival. We are

or extended productions that can be suited to any playing space and generally require no
special needs from a hosting organization or community. We offer
very affordable rates either for single or extended performances and
references are available upon request. If you are interested in any of
the programs listed below, please click on the

Summer Shakespeare Festival
in the Parks
Where it all began! The
oldest and primary stage program for the Hudson Shakespeare Company, our
summer program of free Shakespeare in the parks began as staged readings for
specific area parks in Jersey City, NJ
and since has grown into a multi-city and multi-state tour for each of our
summer productions. HSC produces 4 full shows, one for each month of
the summer. While Shakespeare reigns supreme among our summer shows,
HSC has also recently expanded into featuring other classical titles, such
as our 2002 production of the Greek tragedy
Antigone and plans to expand this repertoire for future seasons.

HSC Venues tab for information concerning all our current staging areas.
HSC Second Stage
Our Second Stage program produces a
wide range of titles during the off-summer season (September-April).
While concentrating primarily on modern playwrights,
we have begun in recent seasons to offer classical productions as
well. We have performed in such varied locations as city courtrooms,
public library community rooms, civic centers and museums.
These shows, like our summer program are all self contained productions,
that can brought in and taken out on a per performance basis and usually require no
special arrangements from a hosting organization or venue.
Specialized shows utilizing a venue's lighting and sound system are also
available with us through advanced arrangement. To view pictures and
information concerning our summer programs please click on the
Past
Productions tab to view our past shows and the
HSC Venues tab for information on all our current
staging areas.
Educational/Senior
Showcases
As early as 1993, HSC produced shows geared
specifically to meet the needs of special programs such as senior showings or
school showcases. Either our Summer Shakespeare Festival or
Second Stage shows can be scheduled for daytime showings or matinees to
meet these needs. If you would like to book one of our Summer or Second
Stage shows for a
school or seniors program please view our Upcoming Shows
page and get in touch prior to a production's scheduled run.
HSC also provides customized showcases for classroom
and assembly programs. Depending on your needs or educational
curriculum, we can produce programs featuring Shakespeare or other playwrights
and authors that are currently being studied by your students. Combined
with question and answer sessions with the actors and hand outs featuring
interesting subject matter information, these live performances are a great
supplement to any classroom program.
