Tennessee Shakespeare Company (TSC) is a professional, not-for-profit theatre and education organization in Memphis with a mission dedicated to live, diverse performances of William Shakespeare+rsquo;s plays, as well as works of social significance by classical, Southern, and modern writers; and to providing innovative educational, training, and outreach programming.

Founded in 2008 by Producing Artistic Director Dan McCleary, Tennessee Shakespeare Company is Memphis+rsquo; first and only professional, classical theatre. In 2017, TSC purchased its first performing arts facility, which is the state+rsquo;s only permanent home for professional, year-round Shakespeare performance, education, outreach, and training.

TSC has engaged its community with over 70 site-specific plays and events for nearly 60,000 patrons. Its ground-breaking Education Program has reached 130 schools across nine states, totaling over 350,000 student interactions. The Program has achieved a high regional and national profile, partners annually with most local school systems, the Memphis V.A. Medical Center, the Memphis juvenile justice system, and this year is a recipient once again of the National Endowment for the Arts/Arts Midwest+rsquo;s Shakespeare in American Communities grant for The Macbeth Initiative in local high schools.
