It is easy to see the intricately detailed costumes and impressive looming stages donations have funded to create the world for Shakespeare On The Green. What is less visible, however, are the people whose lives are affected. Did you know that every $100 donated provides admission-free attendance for five people this summer at Much Ado About Nothing and King John? You can play a role in the over 500,000 people who have started the tradition of enjoying beautiful language and timeless stories with their family and friends.

Your impact won’t stop in the summer, though. Donors like you have grown Nebraska Shakespeare from a beloved summer event that presents plays in the park, to an organization that provides year-round entertainment and education to the region. Along with the two summer productions, the constantly-growing education programs, Shakespeare On Tour and Camp Shakespeare, engage thousands of students in fun and supportive environments. Every $100 dollars donated reaches 14 students, many of whom have never seen a live performance before. And every $1,500 dollars reaches an entire school! Last year, Shakespeare On Tour reached over 10,000 students and earned accolades from students, teachers, and parents. The program continues this fall with an exciting production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream because donors like you make it possible. We hope you will consider donating to Nebraska Shakespeare to let us show you what you can do.
