ROXY THEATRE
10708 124 STREET

We're pleased to partner with Rapid Fire Theatre to present the 3rd annual Hooked on Bardics fundraiser, featuring the UK-based Shakespearean-improv troupe, The School of Night! Sit spell-bound as these wordsmiths channel the Bard in an evening of improvised Shakespeare and other theatrical antics. From sonnets to rhapsodes, this amazing troupe will conjure deep thoughts and belly-laughs as they are joined by a team of Edmonton's finest improvisers!

All proceeds from Hooked on Bardics go toward supporting the Freewill Shakespeare Festival as we present our 25th anniversary season of A Midsummer Night's Dream and King Lear from June 25 – July 21 at the Heritage Amphitheatre in Hawrelak Park.

Tickets for Hooked on Bardics are $26, available through Tix on the Square: 780.420.1757

25th Anniversary Season

The Free Will Players are proud to present our 25^th season featuring King Lear and A Midsummer Night’s Dream from June 25 – July 21 in the Heritage Amphitheatre in Hawrelak Park.

Since 1989, Free Will Players have brought Shakespeare’s heart-stopping romances, chilling tragedies and side-splitting comedies to Hawrelak Park. As a staple of Edmonton's festival season, the FSF offers great summer nights, shelter from storms under the amphitheatre tent, and the magic of the Bard as it was meant to be seen: outdoors in Edmonton's beautiful river valley. The summer of 2013 will be our 25th anniversary. We can't wait to celebrate with you!

Check back for more details as we get closer to the festival.
