About the company: Southwest Shakespeare Company (SSC) exists to elevate, entertain, educate, and inspire the general public and educational communities of Arizona and the Southwest. Building a cultural awareness of the classics that impacts the life of every person, SSC feels that art should play an active role in every person's life. The company strives to present theater and story-telling that speaks to the very nature of our shared humanity, and that can stimulate thought about how to be inclusive rather than exclusive, to help rather than to harm, and to strive for a better world rather than perpetuating injustice.
