Shakespeare from the Ground is an organization completely reliant on business partnerships to thrive in the La Crosse and surrounding community. We bring a talented group of actors to a local bar for one night only, usually a Monday or Tuesday when your regular business might be slower, to perform one of Shakespeare's plays at no cost to you or your patrons.
We believe that Shakespeare is for everyone. Our mission is to make the works of Shakespeare interesting and accessible to your patrons through high-energy, raw performances developed by local and regional actors. Our vision is to develop and connect this dynamic group of experienced performers to a network of businesses willing to collaborate with us in the exploration of the works of Shakespeare as they were meant to be played: by actors, for the rowdy patrons on the ground.
We invite you to find out firsthand what happens when a group of dedicated actors who understand their work take one of Shakespeare's plays, eliminate the director, and are willing to step into the chaos. Step into the chaos with us and reap the benefits of partnering with the arts!
