SAVE THE BARN
The Rose Theater is housed in a beautiful barn built in 1949-50 by Willis and Florence Wilcox. This beautiful round-roof style structure provides the summer home for The Theater at Woodshill.
Since our inception in 2016, Woodshill has produced three of Shakespeare's classic plays:
Much Ado About Nothing (2016)
As You Like It (2018)
Hamlet (2019)
This 2020 season we had been slated to produce a timeless festive comedy, Twelfth Night, but due to the COVID pandemic shutdown, we are using our energies instead on a series of online content, including The Walled Garden Series, and a fully-audio production of Twelfth Night, slated for later this year.
In the meantime, we are going to take advantage of this down year to make a series of important strides to the long-term success and development of the infrastructure of The Rose Theater.
The first step in preserving the barn is getting proper architectural drawings done: we intend to use these drawings as the basis for a multi-year plan to develop The Rose Theater into a top-tier facility, while maintaining is rustic integrity and connection to the land. And yes, that means building, among other important amenities for our actors (such as *actual* dressing rooms), proper, ADA-approved, handicap-accessible restroom facilities for our audiences.
It's time to put a comprehensive plan together to SAVE THE BARN and these drawings are the first step!
A little about us...
THE THEATER AT WOODSHILL
The Theater at Woodshill is a 501(c)3 non-profit arts organization whose mission is to create a permanent home for the works of William Shakespeare on a beautiful farm in Central New York. We believe that upstate communities deserve local, affordable access to world-class productions of Shakespeare and other great classical dramatists. To achieve this goal we have built company of actors, directors, designers, producers, and dramaturgs, professional and non-professional alike, working in collaboration. We call this combined cultural community CNY + NYC.
Along with our commitment to the works of Shakespeare, The Theater at Woodshill is focused on providing educational opportunities for its community through workshops in acting, design, production, and dramaturgy. We are devoted to performing the Bard’s great works in repertory with other classics of the stage, both ancient and modern alike.
