The show will be rehearsed Ren-Style:

We will mimic the way shows were rehearsed during the Renaissance. Actors are only provided a cue script, not the entire play, and come in fully memorized and off book. Rehearsals are limited to approximately 24 - 28 hours (~10-14 days) prior to opening the final weekend in July and runs for 4 weekends.

Vallejo Shakespeare is seeking non-union actors to join our 2026 production. Double/Triple Casting.

NON-TRADITIONAL, COLOR-BLIND, GENDER-BLIND CASTING.

$350 honorarium + tips & lunch at traveling shows.

This is an ensemble production and will also require set-up and break-down at each venue.
