Shakespeare Opera Theatre

Description

2023 marks SOT’s 8th season, and we are excited to continue on in our mission to provide affordable and intimate performances of classic works with a twist. Ticket sales, as with most nonprofit performing arts companies, do not begin to meet all of our expenses, and we depend on partnerships with businesses and individuals in our community to help us bridge the budgetary gap. SOT offers those with lower incomes, military (both active duty and veterans) and first responders tickets free of cost, and offers discounts for groups of students and seniors. We hold a special matinee performance for those with mental and emotional challenges each season, presented by our Abilities Committee. SOT regularly invites local school groups to performances and to participate in Q and A sessions with the artists. We employ professional musicians, actors and singers from our region and beyond who are vital to maintaining the high level of quality our audiences have come to expect. We also give opportunities to learn about and participate in all areas of production to local high school and college students.
