Rough & Tumble Shakespeare Co.

Rough & Tumble Shakespeare Co. A comp’ny of players
Of jumpers
And leapers
I can’t stand still’ers
And playing for keepers
Lovers of words, seekers of fun
A Shakespeare Co. For everyone!

When you hear the name Shakespeare, you should hear another word ring in your ears: Adventure. Students at the Rough & Tumble Shakespeare Co. will not be sitting much. They run around with swords, learning to take on the world as they take on the power and excitement of furious language, and telling incredible stories. Students will learn stagecraft through Shakespeare: his plays, his times, and h

is use of language. All are welcome and all will have a vibrant part to play. RTSC is a blossoming organization and in future we hope to add classes for costuming, technical theater, dramaturgy, etc. Rough & Tumble Shakespeare Co. was founded in 2019 by Evan and Maggie Hernandez. Evan Hernandez is an award winning playwright, published author, and a professional actor. He graduated from the University of Evansville with a degree in performance, literature, and creative writing. After acting with a number of local theaters in the Seattle area and touring for a year with Seattle Shakespeare Company, Evan moved to New York City. He has worked for a wide variety of off-Broadway theaters in both creative and technical positions. Technical credits include Traces, Sleep No More, and Hamilton. He has appeared in a number of regional and national commercials. Evan taught theater for both CYT New York City and CYT Nashville, before founding the Rough & Tumble Shakespeare Company in 2019 with his wife, Maggie. Margaret Hernandez is a graduate of The King's College in NYC with a degree in media, culture, and the arts. During her time there she performed in and helped produce a variety of plays, including Hamlet. She was a member and employee of the renowned Young Actors Theatre in Tallahassee, FL. After college, she interned at TADA!, the premier children's theater in New York City and stage managed operas, including Carmen and Werther. Maggie is a cofounder and the managing director of the Rough & Tumble Shakespeare Company.

The Rough & Tumble Shakespeare Co. is working hard to make our program affordable for all. To do that, we would so appreciate your help. Your giving helps us bless our community with a unique, fun, and educational program. This is not just another theater camp. It is a new and exciting way for kids to engage with the arts. It is the start of a program that will, God willing, entertain, enlighten and enliven all of our lives.

Please give and please share this so we can afford to expand our offerings... and buy some new swords.

My wife and I are excited to bring back The Rough & Tumble Shakespeare Company… Evan Hernandez needs your support for Help Bring Shakespeare to Local Students
