The New Orleans Shakespeare Festival at Tulane
Mission
The New Orleans Shakespeare Festival at Tulane is committed to reimagining, rebuilding and engaging the Gulf South region through the works and words of William Shakespeare. By intermingling artistic and educational programs, the Festival seeks to create a center of entertainment and learning that speaks both through the greatest plays of the English language and one of the great cities of The United States.
“I think that quality of life in general, certainly in any community, is directly proportional to the arts that are available to the people of that community. And as long as we can play a role in contributing to that within New Orleans, our task is outlined for us.”
