St. Louis Shakespeare History: Originally called The St. Louis Shakespeare Company, Saint Louis Shakespeare was founded by Artistic Director Donna Northcott in 1984 to perform Shakespeare's plays and other dramatic classics. The Company was initially started as a summer festival, presenting plays in rotating repertory. The Company now presents three Shakespeare plays and one classic play between July and March of each year. Since 1995, the Company's home has been the beautifully restored Grandel Theater in the Grand Center Arts and Entertainment District of St. Louis, located between Powell Symphony Hall and the Fox Theater on Grand Avenue. St. Louis Shakespeare has produced more than three quarters of Shakespeare's plays, as well as the works of other classical playwrights such as Aristophanes, Euripides, Feydeau, Oscar Wilde, Sheridan, Moliere, Shaw and more modern playwrights such as Arthur Miller and Tom Stoppard.more
