Our Purpose

Shakespeare at Home Limited is a non-profit company Limited by Guarantee our objective is to provide free resources for public benefit on the work and life of William Shakespeare and the renaissance world to audiences around the globe based on community, inclusivity and equality. 

Overview:

To satisfy public benefit Shakespeare at Home at its core is built on a foundation of serving community and our beneficiaries of all ages and all social backgrounds, this commitment is identified by the work we produce. 

In order to satisfy our public aspect, our intent and purpose is enabling anyone who might not think Shakespeare is for them to simply have a go and by doing so we hope that this will provide a confidence and curiosity that is transferable to other areas of life.   

To meet our promise and obligations we operate and are registered as a nonprofit company and we carry out our business by serving community interest.  Everything we do is to benefit others by the encouragement of theatre, arts, audio, performance, through education, fostering curiosity and peace.  We do so by providing all the work we produce for free in order to keep opportunity accessible to everyone. 

We don't generate a profit but if and when we do all profits must remain in the company to further benefit our objectives and can not be used for any other purpose than serving our beneficiaries and meeting our public aspects and public benefit commitments and promise.
