Your first visit
Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.
First step: Email revolutionshakespeare@gmail.com to ask about audition calls or helping out. The newsletter signup also sends audition news, but its form showed a setup note when checked, so email is the surer route..
What to expect
The company's site lists no open classes, rehearsals or volunteer shifts, so a first step is an email. Its 2026 Hamlet ran as free outdoor shows in parks in late July and early August, with shows starting around 7 pm, and the site lists no future dates. Ask the company about dates and seating before you come.
Tips for your first visit
- Email before you come, since the site has no event calendar.
- The mailing address is c/o The Painted Bride Arts Center, so it is not a place to visit in person.
Newcomer welcome
Takes some effort for newcomers (2 out of 5). Why we say this: The site names no open audition, class or volunteer role, and the only ways in are an email address and a newsletter form that may not be working, so the way in is unclear..
