Shakespeare & Company is a mid-sized nonprofit performing arts organization based in Lenox, in the Berkshires of western Massachusetts. It pursues a sustainable, integrated program that combines performance, training, and education to deepen the experience for artists, audiences, the Company, and the surrounding community. The organization centers Shakespeare's work and its core values—collaboration, a commitment to language, visceral experience, and classical ideals—expressed through a blend of physical theater and an embodied contemporary voice. Its work serves artists, audiences, and the broader community by linking stage practice with educational offerings and training opportunities. In May 2026, the organization announced the appointment of Molly Merrihew as Executive Director, indicating a leadership transition.
