About Will & Company
Founder and director Colin Cox and a touring group of artists, much like the troupes who traversed the provinces in Shakespeare's day, make ageless classics more accessible to young audiences. Celebrate the timeless language and classic theatre of Shakespeare's work by selecting a tragedy or a comedy for students to enjoy. Each performance features narration of the story of the play, a presentation of several major scenes, and information about the history and background of the play. These dynamic performances are a great way to intrigue, entrance and educate students about the captivating work of William Shakespeare.
Will & Company offers five different performances.
A Christmas Carol
Age level: Grades K-12
This performance is a humorous and touching tale by Charles Dickens, one of England's most beloved authors. This story is a non-denominational thematic exploration of poverty, family and giving. True to the Will & Company style, A Christmas Carol is highly interactive--students get the chance to act alongside a group of professional actors and contribute to a delightful rendition of the famous story.
