Everyone loves free Shakespeare

“Judging by the response on Facebook to Theater in the Rough’s nine performance season of Richard III… it may very well have to put on a 10th show by popular demand.” – Greer Fay Cashman in The Jerusalem Post

“I was a little unsure about taking my 4yo to see a two hour Shakespeare…[she] was fascinated from start to finish…We were so engrossed we didn’t have time for our picnic.” – Rachel Selby in Midlife Singlemum blog

“I had the privilege to attend Theater in the Rough’s production of Richard III, absolutely free in Jerusalem’s Bloomfield Gardens…So well-conceived. They were vibrant, real, fantastic.” – Miriam Metzinger

“Brilliant. Brilliant. And did I mention. Brilliant. So proud to know you all. Spreading the word that everyone should come see one of the next seven performances.” – Sandy Cash

“I thoroughly enjoyed last night’s opening performance of Theater in the Rough, ‘Richard III: in motion’ in the lovely Bloomfield Gardens. It is a free, fun and culturally enriching event. No reason for anyone to miss it.” – Sara Halevi
