Cal Shakes is closing its doors after 50 years of producing Shakespeare and contemporary theater
Briefly

"Cal Shakes was thrilled that it was able to produce such a wonderful version of As You Like It and appreciated all the contributions from the public who made it possible. Unfortunately, in this economic climate, with lower funding levels by governments, foundations, and donors, it is sadly impossible for the company to continue."
"The loss of the 50-year-old Cal Shakes is incredibly disheartening since, during that time, the company grew from its humble roots performing for free in John Hinkel Park in Berkeley to the Bruns Memorial Amphitheatre on expansive and bucolic grounds on East Bay Municipal Utility District's property in Orinda."
