The Company of Adventurers

Had an amazing experience seeing their play last year. Was disappointed I missed it this year.Wonderful production quality, good for all ages.

The company of adventurers is a very special and dear group to me. The bonds I've made with the rest of the crew over the years will last forever. New faces join each year. The directors have also taught me a lot about Shakespeare and useful acting techniques. I have learned more about Shakespeare and life in his time period from the plays than I have in school. It is always difficult to part at the end of the summers, but I know it won't be too long until the next play. Our productions get better year by year. They're so much fun, but yet professional. You wouldn't be able to tell that it takes place in a backyard once it 's been transformed into the according setting. The actors also learn skills such as set building and costume management. I have been in a total of 6 of their plays and I have had a blast with each one.

I love being in The Company of Adventurers, seeing the first couple of productions and then taking part in the last two has given me so many good memories.

Truly a gem.

I absolutely adored the two years I got to spend with the Company of Adventurers. The costumes, scripts and people are incredible! I have grown so much as an actor and as a person in general because of the kind and thoughtful directors. Thank you Cynthia and Paul for creating such a fun and educational environment for actors to grow!

I have been in Company of Adventurers since 2012 and each summer, it was this that I looked forward to the most! I am honoured and blessed to be a part of this family. Though I was not able to participate in the show last year, it gave me the opportunity to see 2017 performance of Taming of the Shrew. Watching that show was such a magical and immersive experience, I enjoyed myself more than I can say. I really encourage you to go to their future performances if you have any interest in Shakespeare and/or the theatre in general.

Watching teenagers in the neighborhood put together and run a full length Shakespeare play at the end of summer is one of the Old Ottawa South (and Ottawa) pleasures that I look forward to!
