Join a Washington Insider Tradition! Late April/Early May 2014 The Shakespeare Theatre Company’s annual Will on the Hill benefit, now in its twelfth year, welcomes Members of Congress, Senators, and distinguished Washington insiders onto the Company’s stage to perform scenes from Shakespeare—infused with comedic references to contemporary politics. Will on the Hill pays tribute to the vibrant and engaged dynamic of our city and provides a wonderful way to reach new audiences and support the Shakespeare Theatre Company’s artistic, education and community outreach programs.
