Shakespeare in Action is a Toronto-based, multi-racial Shakespearean theatre company for young audiences.
 The company aspires to enhance the arts and education by bringing Shakespeare's plays to children and students across Toronto.
 Founded in 1988 by Artistic Director Michael Kelly, Shakespeare in Action offers a wide variety of programming for students, teachers and the community, including in-class workshops, mainstage productions, summer programs and more.
 In 2009 the company became the Artist Company in Residence at Toronto's Central Commerce Collegiate Institute.
 The company also partners with TD Bank and the Toronto Public Library to produce the Shakespeare for Kids Library Club, a free program where children learn how to act out Shakespeare's plays themselves.
The Metaverse Shakespeare Company, (previously known as the SL Shakespeare Company ) produces Shakespearean and other plays in the Second Life virtual world.
 Professional and amateur talent is used for productions in a replica of the Globe Theater.
 The actors are special purpose avatars, controlled by prerecorded and real time live input.
As You Like It is a pastoral comedy by William Shakespeare believed to have been written in 1599 and first published in the First Folio in 1623.
 The play's first performance is uncertain, though a performance at Wilton House in 1603 has been suggested as a possibility.
Shakespearean tragedy is the designation given to most tragedies written by playwright William Shakespeare.
 Many of his history plays share the qualifiers of a Shakespearean tragedy, but because they are based on real figures throughout the History of England, they were classified as "histories" in the First Folio.
 The Roman tragedies—"Julius Caesar", "Antony and Cleopatra" and "Coriolanus"—are also based on historical figures, but because their source stories were foreign and ancient they are almost always classified as tragedies rather than histories.
 Shakespeare's romances (tragicomic plays) were written late in his career and published originally as either tragedy or comedy.
 They share some elements of tragedy featuring a high status central character but end happily like Shakespearean comedies.
 Several hundred years after Shakespeare's death, scholar F.S. Boas also coined a fifth category, the "problem play," for plays that don't fit neatly into a single classification because of their subject matter, setting, or ending.
 The classifications of certain Shakespeare plays are still debated among scholars.
Mr. William Shakespeare's Comedies, Histories, & Tragedies is the 1623 published collection of William Shakespeare's plays.
 Modern scholars commonly refer to it as the First Folio.
 The First Folio is considered one of the most influential books ever published in the English language.
In October 1983, the Riverside Shakespeare Company, then New York City's only year-round professional Shakespeare theatre company, inaugurated "The Shakespeare Project", based at the theatre company's home on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, The Shakespeare Center.
 "The Shakespeare Project" was the first major New York residency of actors from the Royal Shakespeare Company - with Edwin Richfield, Heather Canning, Christopher Ravenscroft, Jennie Stoller and John Kane (the later two from Peter Brook's "A Midsummer Night's Dream") - for a week of public workshops, panel discussions, seminars and performances at the company's Upper West Side theatre, The Shakespeare Center.
 The event was launched at a luncheon in the Shakespeare Room of the Algonquin Hotel attended by Joseph Papp, Helen Hayes, Frank Rich, Gloria Skurski, W. Stuart McDowell, and members of the Royal Shakespeare Company in mid October 1983.
 According to the "New York Times", over one thousand actors, students, teachers and stage directors, from the ages of 15 to 87, signed up for 22 sessions taught by some of the leading actors from London's Royal Shakespeare Company.
First Folio Theatre is a not-for-profit theater company affiliated with the Actors' Equity Association.
 Founded in 1996, First Folio, originally named First Folio Shakespeare Festival, is located on the grounds of the Mayslake Peabody Estate in Oak Brook, Illinois, United States.
 First Folio utilizes the "Folio Method" as developed by Patrick Tucker (at one time of the Royal Shakespeare Company), who first introduced his approach to American actors, directors and teachers in a series of workshops sponsored by the Riverside Shakespeare Company of New York City at The Shakespeare Center beginning in 1982, which led to an awakened interest in the First Folio.
The Philadelphia Shakespeare Festival is an annual Shakespearean theatre festival in Philadelphia.
 Every year, The Festival produces two or three productions of Shakespeare's plays.
 Starting out as the Red Heel Theatre in 1989, and changing name and purpose in 1993, The Philadelphia Shakespeare Festival is now the region’s only theatre devoted entirely to Shakespeare’s works.
 In 2008/9, they engaged in intensive planning with the board of directors and cultural and community leaders and decided to re-brand and rename the company to better reflect their programming.
 The Philadelphia Shakespeare Theatre now has several programs for adults and students including a lecture series featuring world-renowned Shakespeare scholars, Shakespeare School Tour which also tours in schools, and a Classical Acting Academy providing early career actors with intense classical training culminating in a free summer Shakespeare play for the public.
