The festival draws from local El Dorado Hills Folsom, California Folsom and San Francisco Bay Area Bay Area talent, and features both seasoned and new performers. The festival s primary endeavor is to breathe life into William Shakespeare s legacy on a traditional Elizabethan stage while educating and entertaining the audience. Productions abide by the traditional style of the work as the organizers feel it should be represented no altering of the Bard s language, no modern adaptation that can cloud the intent or story of the plays.
