Since its creation in 2003 by a group of Shakespeare enthusiasts, the Boston University Shakespeare Society has worked tirelessly to bring the good word of the Bard to the community. The Society is certainly not your average theater group. We have put on shows, hosted trips to local plays and Renaissance festivals, and brought Shakespeare's words to the wider world. We are always looking for new members--auditions are held at the beginning of every semester and we have other events for those who don't wish to perform. While approaching the BU theater community can sometimes be a daunting and difficult task, the Society prides itself on its great community of members. We make up nearly every school and class at BU, both undergrads and grad students, creating a diverse and extremely fun-loving group of people.
