Why Give

"Convenient numbers to make good the city"
(Coriolanus, Act 1, Scene V)


CSC has presented FREE Shakespeare to the city of Boston for 17 years

     In 2012 we saw our 1 millionth patron on the Boston Common

Nearly 100,000 patrons attend our performances on the Common each summer

     Since 2010, TOUR OF THE PARKS held 22 performances in 9 of Boston's under-served neighborhood parks

12 scholarships were granted to last year's Summer Apprentices

     Shakespeare on the Common has had a $15,000,000 economic impact,
          according to one economic calculator

Since 1997, CSC has received 9 Elliot Norton and 6 IRNE Awards
    
     Boston's 2 leading elected officials, Governor Patrick and Mayor Menino,
         have welcomed the crowd from the stage on Opening Night

72% of CSC's revenue comes from donations

     Boston has ZERO arts events larger than Shakespeare on the Common
