"First Folio offers something Navy Pier can't — plenty of greenery, gentle breezes and the chance to stretch out on a blanket with family and friends while being transported to Shakespeare's otherworldly romance."

First Folio Shakespeare Festival Mission Statement
Our mission is to provide high quality professional productions of
Shakespeare and other classics, while enhancing the cultural
activities at Mayslake Peabody Estate in Oak Brook, and creating
awareness of this historic site in the suburbs of Chicago.  Our mission emphasizes a training
initiative for young theatre artists, and educational touring
productions, that provide a living counterpoint to school literature programs.

"We are such stuffe as dreames are made on"
