Hamlet 2020 Online
"Shakespeare Sports has made a brave attempt to present this well-known classic under very difficult circumstances ...The reading was well done ... As Hamlet, Matt Tiemstra needs a stage. His energy and enthusiasm was evident, and his descent into madness particularly effective ... Mr. Hagins is a good director. His cast is definitely capable."

Two Gentlemen of Verona 2019
Shakespeare Sports Theatre’s “Two Gentlemen of Verona” was a great minimalist production with actors demonstrating skill in both the language and comedic timing. Utilizing the park setting, they created a production that was definitely worth sitting in the park for."
