Directions Theatre Pty Ltd

For several years now Directions Theatre have, at the invitation of residents, toured “Shakespeare in the Gardens” to the North East corner of Tasmania and have entertained hundreds of audience. 

 

Directions also tour a preview show to the south of the state (again at the invitation of residents) at the Elsewhere Vineyard in Glaziers Bay with remarkable success.

 

Shakespeare in the Gardens was originally tackled by Ingrid and Ros with their devotion to providing opportunities for local actors and theatre workers to produce quality theatre for the local community, while adding to the Hobart cultural calendar over the summer season.
