Indianapolis Shakespeare Company is entering its 11th year of producing high quality, fully professional Shakespeare productions in White River State Park. Indy Shakes is proud to offer these performances to the Indianapolis community for FREE! Our company was founded in this collaborative spirit in 2006 by a group of Indianapolis actors who created the Heartland Actors’ Repertory Theatre, a company which initially began by producing contemporary work and brand new plays. Over the years, the free Shakespeare productions became the galvanizing focus of the company. Indianapolis Shakespeare Company has been rooted in the Indianapolis community for a decade and will continue to serve the great city of Indianapolis for years to come.
