    A Company of Fools Theatre is a not-for-profit organization that works to bring Shakespeare into the foreground in an entertaining way.  We provide workshops to high school students,  tour a  ‘free’  show through the summer  and produce a full-length play each year.  We believe that Shakespeare should be seen and not read and feel that making literature fun is a surefire way to get people,  young and old to enjoy Shakespeare.

    As with any not-for-profit our budgets are small and our volunteers work hard.  If you are interested in making a monetary donation to The Fools please feel free use the PayPal account below,  send us a cheque,or contact us to make other arrangements.

    Our  thanks goes out to those anonymous donors who make their donation through the United Way Workplace Charitable Campaign.  We’d love to hear from you so we can recognize you here!
