Gala Performance

CLICK HERE TO BUY TICKETS

Delaware Shakespeare’s beloved Community Tour is back for 2023! Cymbeline, one of Shakespeare’s wondrous and lesser-known later plays, will criss-cross the state for three weeks sharing high quality theatre with the full spectrum of humanity by performing in locations such as prisons, transitional housing facilities, and community centers.

After this epic, state-wide journey, Cymbeline will return home to OperaDelaware Studios for a special Gala Performance, which will feature a pre-show reception with cast members.

Experience this funny, beautiful, and chaotic saga – just as tour audiences saw it in conference rooms, gyms, and prison chapels.

Hear about the thrilling responses to the play, from audiences at such locations as Baylor Women’s Correctional Institution, Sussex Correctional Institution, Easterseals, New Castle County Hope Center, and more.

Support sharing free theatre with Delawareans who may have limited access to the arts.
