Gamut Classic Theatre: A Classic Act in Harrisburg, PA

Filed under Things to Do
Gamut Classic Theatre combines the talents of the Harrisburg Shakespeare Festival and the Popcorn Hat Players Children's Theatre into one production company. The former focuses on a yearly celebration of the British playwright, featuring a sampling of the bard's most popular works along with free performances, comedy send-ups, and even a symbolic birthday party. The latter component of the company is dedicated to entertaining children and their families in a unique setting, bringing folk tales, fairytales, and fables to life in creative—and at times improvisational—ways. Gamut is committed to bringing the power of theater to Harrisburg, but the popularity and high quality of each production means that the players are often on the road to perform for other communities. But with frequent performances throughout the year and an educational outreach program that includes a theater school, educational residencies, and resources for local teachers, this is a true hub for Harrisburg's thespians and theater appreciators.
