Annual Gala: What’s Past is Prologue
Our annual Gala is a celebration of all things Door Shakespeare. Enjoy entertainment from company members. Get a sneak peek at Camp Will, Door Shakespeare’s Summer youth program. Mix and mingle with fellow theater lovers. Savor locally sourced appetizers, entrees, and desserts by Thyme Cuisine under the twinkling lights of the Woodwalk Gallery’s classically rustic setting, and weather permitting, in the beauty of the surrounding gardens.
Throughout the evening, we chat about Door Shakespeare and how to become more involved; and you have the opportunity to bid on an assortment of carefully curated silent auction items.
Towards the end of the event, patrons enjoy participating in our unique paddle raiser that contributes to the year’s fundraising initiatives. In the past, your support has helped to fund actor housing, mosquito abatement in the Garden, Camp Will teaching artists, and a custom registration desk for our box office.
It’s an evening full of delicious food, engaging entertainment, and friendly conversation!

Due to challenges of the 2022 season, including a very rainy June, staff shortages, and the need to follow COVID safety protocols in order to keep everyone safe and our productions running; the 2022 Gala has been replaced by All’s Well That Ends Well, an online fundraising auction!
