Tuesday, Nov. 30th is the tenth anniversary of 'Giving Tuesday'. Donations that are made to Shakespeare & Company as part of the campaign will be used to make tickets available, at the discounted price, for a costumed reading of The Wickhams: Christmas at Pemberley, which is scheduled to run on Thursday, Dec. 16th through Sunday, Dec. 19th at the Tina Packer Playhouse.

Frontline workers are all around us doing essential jobs that keep our communities up-and-running,” said Stevens... This is just one way we can give back to them for their tireless work: offering a well-earned night out at the theater.
