The Shakespeare Summer Camp and Summer Scene Fest are made
possible by a collaboration between Greenwood Little Theatre,
ArtPlace Mississippi, and the Greenwood Shakespeare Project. All
three of these organizations provide high quality educational and
arts opportunities for area youth and deserve your support. As you
enjoy tonight’s show, please consider donating to these groups so
that programs like this will continue to be available for all citizens
of Greenwood.
Within and beside these organizations, we’d especially like to thank
our adult teachers and leaders who devoted countless hours to our
project. We’d also like to thank a long list of folks who made this
possible in ways large and small. These include Cam Abel, Richard
Beattie, Paul Brown, Taylor Buchanan, Casey Cep, Alicia Dallas,
Richard Elliott, Nichole Henry, Forrest Hodge, Dame Jasmine
Hughes, J. T. Hurst, Sarah Iwanski, Becky & Jimbo Palmer, Will
Perkins, Dan Splaingard, and Yolande van Heerden.

     This project is supported in part by funding from the City of
 Greenwood, the Community Foundation of Northwest Mississippi,
 the Mississippi Arts Commission, a state agency, and in part from
       the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.
