Since starting in 1958, the has become a summertime staple in 勒貊勛圖. Organizers now hope to build on the festival���s popularity by taking their show on the road.
In February, CSF announced Shakespeare Across Colorado���a new initiative to bring live, professional Shakespeare performances to all 64 Colorado counties in the next decade.
The $3.2 million endeavor will reach an estimated 180,000 audience members in community theaters, school cafeterias and other venues across the state by 2028.
