Folger Theatre’s fourth annual Reading Room Festival returns with a four-day festival of staged readings, panel discussions, workshops, and community celebrations.
Join artists, critics, scholars, and audience members in a celebration of creative community, as we collaboratively re-envision Shakespeare’s works, explore the vibrant musicality of Shakespeare’s verse, and reimagine the stories crafted by other early modern playwrights.
The best way to experience the festival is with an all-access pass, which guarantees you premiere access to all staged readings, panel discussions, workshops, and community celebrations.
