Acknowledgments
Thank you to the cast and company of upstart crow’s original production of King John, and to the University of Washington School of Drama.
About upstart crow collective
upstart crow collective was co-founded by Betsy Schwartz, Kate Wisniewski, and Rosa Joshi in 2006. upstart crow’s mission is to produce classical plays with diverse casts of women and non-binary people, re-imagining these works for a contemporary audience. Our work is text centered, highly physical and visually imaginative, and our process centers the experiences of women in the world. We create opportunities for cis gendered women, trans women, and gender non-binary people as part of our commitment to include artists who have been traditionally marginalized by the very male Shakespearean canon. Our inaugural production was King John and we are thrilled to revisit this play with Oregon Shakespeare Festival. Past productions include Titus Andronicus; Richard III co-produced with Seattle Shakespeare Company (SSC); Bring Down the House, originally produced with SSC and then again with OSF in a new production that ran for four performances in 2020 before the pandemic shut down theatre across the world. We are grateful to OSF for bringing us back this season and to all the artists who have worked with us throughout the years.
The Oregon Shakespeare Festival is a constituent of Theatre Communications Group, the national service organization for the not-for-profit professional theatre.
The Oregon Shakespeare Festival is a member of the Shakespeare Theatre Association.
The Oregon Shakespeare Festival operates under contracts with Actors’ Equity Association, the Union of Professional Actors and Stage Managers in the United States; the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees; and the Stage Directors and Choreographers Society, Inc., an independent national labor union.
