Long Beach Shakespeare Company

THE LONG BEACH SHAKESPEARE COMPANY STORY

The Long Beach Shakespeare Company was established in 1990 as the non-profit [501 (c)(3)] theatre arts organization "The-Bard-In-The-Yard." An itinerant company, its goal was to provide free Shakespeare in the parks of Long Beach in the summer. Now an acclaimed company with a resident theatre (since 2002), LBSC's mission is pro-literacy, and our goal is to inspire our audiences with year-round, quality, affordable, traditionally-based performances of classic literature.
