Folger Theatre, an intimate 250-seat Elizabethan-style theater at the Folger Shakespeare Library on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, specializes in innovative stagings of works by Shakespeare, other classical work, and new plays inspired by these traditions. “It is such a rare, sensory pleasure to be ensconced in the dark, mock-medieval confines of this intimate little venue, knowing that whatever takes the stage will be urgent, soulful, cerebral, and often irreverently funny...any time spent inside the Folger’s enchanted walls is time well-spent" (Metro Weekly). Folger Theatre is "the go-to local troupe for classical innovation with unmatched imaginative momentum" (Washington Post).
