The season will include TWELFTH NIGHT and more.
Door Shakespeare has revealed the directing team for the 2025 summer season. Scott McKenna Campbell returns to Door Shakespeare to direct Twelfth Night while Samantha Martinson makes her Door Shakespeare directing debut with Great Expectations.
"It has been a joy to gather the talented theater professionals that make up Door Shakespeare's 2025 company," shares Producing Artistic Director Amy Ensign. "I can't wait for them to arrive in Door County to begin in-person work on the stories in our 30th anniversary season."
The directing team is the driving force behind the artistic development of the season, which includes two shows running in alternating repertory: William Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, and Charles Dickens’s Great Expectations, adapted for the stage by Gale Childs Daly.
