“All the world's a stage …”
– As You Like It

The National Endowment for the Arts, in cooperation with Arts Midwest, is bringing professional theater productions of Shakespeare and related educational activities to Americans in small and mid-sized communities throughout the country. The initiative launched in September 2003 with a nationwide tour of seven professional theater companies, including a tour to 13 military bases.

Since then, the program has continued each school year with Shakespeare for a New Generation. Supported by grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, theater partners provide professional Shakespeare performances and educational programs to high school and middle school students nationwide.
