Stolen Shakespeare Guild is dedicated to uniting and enriching our community through the preservation and celebration of classic theater.
We provide honest and accessible professional productions for our community. We value the highest artistic quality by nurturing local talent, cultivating a loyal audience and an enthusiastic support network. Because we believe classic theater is still relevant to modern audiences, we strive to present plays in a clear, engaging way. In order to create a long-lasting legacy, we are committed to financial sustainability. We value an enriching, educational, and entertaining, shared theatrical experience.
Stolen Shakespeare Guild (SSG) was launched 19 years ago as Jason Morgan’s Master’s Thesis Project at Texas Woman’s University and over the years has grown to be an essential voice in Fort Worth theater. Our core values are rooted in creating a truly enriching, educational, and entertaining shared theatrical experience at a price point that makes it accessible to all. Classic theater endures because it taps into shared human experience, emphasizing the fundamental aspects of our nature, and at SSG, we strive for everyone to see themselves reflected in these stories regardless of their age, race, or background.
Stolen Shakespeare Guild is the only theater company in Fort Worth that is dedicated to producing the classics. Most major cities that tout themselves as leaders in the arts have classical companies. The classics are the foundation upon which all great theater finds its inspiration, and it is vital for the cultural landscape of the city to keep this art form alive.
