The shows have always been excellent, the venues are very clean and all the workers are very nice and friendly. I especially like the black swan as it has a very personal feel to it being so up close and personal with the actors and actresses. Would highly recommend these plays to anyone traveling through Ashland or southern Oregon.

The play, the Theatre, Ashland itself is amazing. Inspired by the art of the theater, both before and after watching the play. Beautiful. It inspired me to draw the theaters stages, on my hand. Hope you like! Fabulous

Had a very enjoyable evening watching “All’s well that ends well.” They do a great job of presenting a modern interpretation of the play while staying true to the original language. These are not stuffy stiff performances.One thing we didn’t realize at first is that the theater is open air. So be sure to bring a jacket to stay warm.

OSF is a truly great institution that has made Ashland the cultural jewel that it is. One of the best theater companies in the country.

Mother load was terrific I recommend it to everyone, it felt so real that I almost cried. This actors did the most excellent job! It was so real and it goes right along with what is going on currently and what had happened in pass, but most of all it has great messages and it very funny. It’s a great play totally felt in love with it. Thank for such an amazing time.

We’ve had a ladies trip for 20 years where we all meet in Ashland Oregon and attend the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. We are headed there this week. The plays are always wonderful and the trips are warm and memorable. Can’t wait to see Macbeth!

This was a wonderful experience! Best Shakespeare I have ever seen, and there were modern plays as well like Hannah and the Dread Gazebo or Beauty and the Best. The talent was top notch!

A once in a lifetime experience! Absolutely amazing especially for Shakespeare fans!

Incredible experience, theaters, and group of people getting together to make every year a new and delightful thrill.

A world of fun! The musicals and plays I saw at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival simply blew me away with their awesomeness! The acting/dancing/singing was top notch, as were the sets/costumes/music. This was an unforgettable world class theater experience.

We saw Shakespeare in Love and I cannot get over how delightful it was! The quality of the show was absolutely worthy of the hype. If youre near Ashland and considering a show, definitely go for it! We will be back.

A wonderful experience, do not miss out on this if you are visiting southern Oregon!

Everyone who enjoys plays should make a visit to OSF. Several theatre options and an ever changing listing of plays means there is something for everyone.In addition to the festival offerings, the city of Ashland has great lodging and many unique art galleries and stores.

Amazing experience. For kids and adults. Must see.

2-3 times a year. We like the balance of classical Shakespeare with contemporary performances.Vietgone blew us away. Even after coming here for 5+ years we continue to be enthralled. Will continue our membership for the foreseeable future.

Amazing place to go and enjoy a play. The actor and the atmosphere is so much fun. Please bring layers as the theatres are a little colder to keep the actor comfortable while they perform. All in all Ashland is a magical place.

My daughter and I drove up from Sacramento to see Alls Well That Ends Well. The Allen Elizabethan theatre was amazing! The play was three hours, and all with Ashlands perfect quirkiness. The costumes were a cross between Shakespeare and hip-hop and more, just as eclectic. We are already planning our next trip!

I love seeing all the plays & the green showThis is the best of the best plays thank you everyone that makes this happen every year it is Great all season of plays and events in Ashland Oregon to learn study and enjoy the environment of entertainment. I came here with my University 20 years ago and feel in love here smile:)

We go every year, never disappointed! There is always a great selection of shows to see and the town of Ashland is absolutely lovely.

Ive seen 5 shows at OSF and will be going every year forever, I think. Ridiculously brilliant stage productions, acting, costumes, direction, sets, lighting. So wonderful and unique and modern and inclusive.

Parking is a really significant problem unless you are there 60 min early. Such a shame that they have this wonderful event but they dont care enough to provide sufficient parking. The play was wonderful despite the lack of speech/language training.

I loved watching Macbeth here! Staff is kind and friendly, and the fare is affordable. My only concern is that there are not enough safety checks in place.

Hairspray was amazing!! So inspirational! So inclusive!! The singing was wonderful, the choreography was awesome. The costumes were so fun and the set was very clever--simple and versatile--loved the rolling jail! One of my favorites forever!

Great production value. Like going to Broadway. Venue is outside, seats are hard. But performance value is awesome. People there seem to be a little snotty.

We saw AliceInWonderland this year and loved the creative take on it. The Cheshire Cat costume was absolutely brilliant! I also really enjoyed getting a hot apple cider during intermission to warm my hands in the October night. I would highly recommend viewing a play at OSF.

The Shakespeare show was fantastic. They provide i-pad open caption. It is definitely well worth to see the rare famous Shakespeare theater.

Shakespeare ramp.Great plays, mostly good acting, outstandingly magnificent minimal sets.

What an amazing experience! Everyone should get to see at least one Play in this setting.

The best regional theater company in America

Well, ya know. Its OSF. A little too far left, at times, but still fun. I love the Allen Elizabethan.

Excellent theatrical experience. My daughter just loved it. No matter what you see its going to be fabulous.

Amazing artists!! Saw hair spray loved it, snacks were not worth the outrageous prices. Eat first cause the shows are long. Come early to find parking.

I recently saw Macbeth at the Allen Elizabethan theater. This is OSF outdoor theater, and what an amazing experience it was to look up and see the stars. The sound was great, The stage was beautiful, the actors were well rehearsed and full of passion, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere took you to a different century. If you happen to see a play here during the fall make sure to bring a bundle up and bring a blanket. 100% must experience a play at OSF. If you are just passing through, go!!! If you are a local, go!!!

So much fun. Plays of all types and amazing actors. Ive been coming since childhood, and the festival never disappoints.

Great experience, great place to visit. Love the shows and all the creativity and artistry that goes into it all. Would recommend for everyone to go at least once.

Ground breaking theater that is on par with Broadway. Must see the backstage tour to really appreciate how well planned and executed this behemoth of a theater company is!

Please go! Even if you dont understand Shakespearean language it is always a great show. Ive been going since I was 6, my first play was the Tempest and I was so in awe of Prospero and his lightning staff.

Cambodian Rock Band was leaving town to go out on the road we saw the last matinee and feel fortunate to have done so.

We have been to maybe 15-20 plays over 20-some years. Obviously not a lot for someone who lives 50 miles away. But the OSFAs production of Hairspray was unexpectedly high-end and will bring us back for more in the coming years.Jim

Plays are not limited to Shakespeare, performed mostly by a repertory company, and are creatively staged. Themes are often challenging and very rewarding. Go every year!

If you want an experience in theatre this is the place. Three venues, two of which run from February thru October with wonderful productions. Its been the source of some of my most memorable theater experiences.

OSF is the finest theater experience I’ve had. It is so much more than Shakespeare, also featuring modern dramas, comedies, and musicals, and even experimental theater. The talent is top notch, and location is superb.

World Class event! We saw three plays and every one of them had rousing standing ovations. They were all so moving, meaningful and also humorous.

Wonderful, little known vacation destination. Wonderful theater, beautiful landscape and fantastic food. When you tell the locals that you came from the other side of the country (like I did) theyll look at you like you are crazy, but Ashland and the surrounding area is not to be missed.

As always, wonderful trip to OSF! We saw Othello, Lovess Labors Lost, and Book of Will. Had tickets for Romeo and Juliet, but due to the Southern Oregon wildfires, that performance was cancelled due to the smoke and poor air quality.But the shows, as always were great. Some werent hit with me, but I know it could have been an off night for an actor, or the style just isnt my cup of tea. None the less, standing ovation for every performance we saw, and well worthy of high praise.

Went to see As You Like It at the Bowman Theater with three friends. Too much artistic license was taken for our tastes, and we walked out at intermission. Shakespeare needs to be kept pure, with period dress and language. Very disappointed!!!

Great variety of high quality plays to see. Excellent venues.

The weather is beautiful, and the plays are wonderful. A lovely production of As You Like It. We also were especially impressed by the new play called Mother Road.

Was only able to walk into the large outdoor stage as they were doing a sound check. Sadly, wasnt able to see others as they were locked up. No tours scheduled that I noticed. But walking the streets of Ashland, and the stores, was delightful

The Shakespeare plays here are very awesome to watch

I’ve been coming to Ashland for plays and inspiration since I was an intern at Willamette in 1990. Such an amazing amount of talent and creativity

The setting is spectacular. The townspeople are friendly. The restaurants are accommodating of all manner of food preferences . And the festival has thought-provoking plays for everyone...eleven choices this year!

If you love live theater this is the best. Do much fun!!

Amazing Shakespeare... Best Play around..

Top Broadway quality theater in a small town in southern Oregon. We just saw Octavio Soliss Mother Road. A new piece, inspired by Steinbecks Grapes Of Wrath, it was set in contemporary America, touched on issues including racism, violence against women, LGBTQ issues, poverty and more, with a generous seasoning of the Hispanic experience. Great show, well acted with a versatile set and a theater with no bad seats.

Even in the rain, these actors put on a fantastic show, worth coming back to every year!

In the last 15 or so years this was my 3rd performance of Romeo and Juliet and it was fantastic! The cast was great and they moved throughout the audience at different part of the play. The Elizabethan theatre is nice but plan to bring layers if youll be there in the evening and towards the end of summer/fall

Literally a national treasure. Shakespeare plus every other kind of play. I have seen forty-five shows there, and only found one unenjoyable. Two have provided strong candidates for all-time favorite memory with my family and all-time favorite moment of my career.

Macbeth in the outdoor theater was superbly done. Loved the outside setting as the night crept in.

Such an amazing experience here in Southern Oregon. For date night, family shows, and dont miss out on the free Green Shows during the summer! Plus, now they have in venue cups so you can enjoy your beverages in the theater during the show.

Such an amazing festival!!! My husband and I come every year, we love seeing multiple Shakespeare plays :)

Oregon Shakespeare Festival has a variety of entertaining and socially relevant plays with excellent performances and high production quality. There is something here for everyone!

We saw Sense and Sensibility here a few nights ago. I love this theater companys commitment to diversity and inclusiveness. The cast was very diverse, and it was beautiful to see such a range of humanity on a stage. The acting was excellent, especially the two young leads. We thoroughly enjoyed the show.

Wonderful plays! The headphones for hearing MOTHER ROAD did NOT help.Too much noise from back screen? Otherwise FABULOSO!

We saw the play Sense and Sensibility. Very nice production of the play. We always enjoy productions by the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. Ashland was having air quality issues due to fires in the area. The theater was well ventilated and had no smoke issues. All the staff was courteous and friendly. At intermission, the lines for the bathroom and concessions were long, but moved quickly. We also went to the gift shop for souvenirs and gifts.

It is a remarkable experience, well worth the 4 hour drive to spend a few days at the festival. The Elizabethan theater in particular is an exceptional venue. They frequently take liberties with settings and time periods. I am sure others find it fresh and interesting, but I dislike it.

This theater is beautiful. The show was amazing.

Our class will not be coming back. The plays have gone downhill the last couple of years. Very liberal agenda and not kid friendly anymore. Horrible. Not the traditional Shakespeare we know and love. We will be checking out the Tahoe Shakespeare Festival next year or this summer to “clean our palette.” So sad.

This years production of Othello is a must see. It will move you through and through and you will leave the theatre deeply affected. Then Henry V is also excellent and is performed in the newest theatre which has audience on three side. This theatre is more intimate and the production values of Henry V are excellent and very engaging. I always love going to see plays in Ashland as finally you can hear and understand every word of Shakespeare!

Love this Event, they need financial help. If you can spare some extra money please send it here. The fire smoke has really had a terrible effect financially. If your close come see a play to help support the arts. There are many local people behind the scenes who depend on these plays to support their family. The prices we paid this year were from $35 to $85. We had 1 day with only 1 show planned, we stopped by the OSF office to see if they had rush tickets, we were blessed to add Oklahoma for $40.00. If you plan a few weeks in advance you can get good deals on hotels as well. We went to some of the local motels to look at their rooms, we were quoted $80 - $220 for a room on the day we were looking at them, this was a Wednesday, many had availability for Wed & Thurs. I hope this helps you plan your trip here. I come every year with a girlfriend, we cant wait for next year, we will spend a little over a week to see them all.

To OSF please be as choosy with your Green show as you are with the wonderful plays.

Normally love it. Play was great! they forgot to sign our group up for pre teach that we paid for, left us in a long wait, someones coming energetic kids with no plan for a hour while waiting and then got rude greeting at the door from attendant. then was accommodated but generally stressful except for the play itself which was fantastic

It was well done but the costumes were a bit odd. For instance, the clothing of the fool and the banned Duke in As you Like It.

Nice setting, good local and tourist show of fans in audience. Actors are great, worth the time...the arts are seemingly disappearing, so this is refreshing to see. Grab a cold beer across the street before going in to beat the beer/wine line

The Oregon Shakespeare Festival is an amazing event showcasing a multitude of world-class productions, Shakespeare and otherwise. Ashland is a nice town, with lots of fun shops and restaurants to pass the time in before seeing your next play. The productions are among the best Ive ever seen, with actors/actresses and set designs that I would say rival those found on Broadway. Highly recommend to anyone with any level of interest in theatre. You wont be disappointed.

Everyone should visit! Not all Shakespeare! Great contemporary plays

We saw Alice in Wonderland. They did an awesome job with the show.

The plays were better than the original movies. I loved hair spray!!!

Awesome live performances, clean and friendly atmosphere. Ive only had positive experiences at OSF :-D

What could be better than Shakespeare under the stars? Awesome experience!

Saw Loves Labor’s Lost, on the big stage, which was totally entertaining. Cast was very good and well prepared. I got a top tier ticket, which probably was not necessary. No bad seats In this large, outdoor, theatre.

Sense and Sensibility was wonderful! Great acting, great audience. To make it even better, I purchased a $40 ticket for a good seat an hour before show time

We have been to The Oregon Shakespeare Festival many times and it is always wonderful. While I cannot say Ive enjoyed every single play Ive seen, the acting and set are always top level and the venue is amazing. Well worth a visit.

Brought the family to see Alice in Wonderland at the Elizabethan theater. It was a glorious show with beautiful weather.

This place takes millions of dollars in grant money each year from other art projects.. some three million given to them last year. They in turn actively suppress music in this town lobby the city to prevent music in surrounding businesses and in the park, act as thought they run this town, and do not participate in any local charity work. booo on you. NOT worthy of your support

This year so far: Cambodia Rock band the best performance

We love it. Every play has been in a different venue, and amazing. The quality of the plays are fantastic, the artistic expression is amazing. But please dont go, we dont need competition for seats ;-).

The Elizabethan Theater was an amazing setting for MacBeth.

The gem in the valley. Great venue for date night. Seating is comfortable. Actors are top notch. Performances are world class. Bravo!!!

The Odyssey at the outdoor Allen Elizabethan Theatre was probably one of the best performances I have ever seen. It was long, but you didnt even feel it. The actors captured the timeless themes of life. Written B.C. one could hardly imagine how relevant it all is. Beautifully done.

Beautiful outdoor theater and great acting. Im not the biggest Shakespeare individual, but my wife loves it. We had a really good time at this location and the atmosphere was perfect.

My party has seen around 150 plays here. High production value, attention to detail excellent acting dancing and singing. The costumes are spectacular. The Shakespeare productions are freshened engaging, the other modern and classic productions are also really well done. Well worth the trip.

Amazing production values, talented actors. Shakespeare. Its all good. They also feature new and debut plays and a musical so there is something for everyone.

You just cant beat a night of theater under the stars, a free show before the plays begin, kid friendly, seniors friendly, disabled friendly. Just show up!

Great theatre in a cute town with nice people and excellent restaurants.

I love OSF. I have seen over 18 shows here over the past four years and I will keep coming back for more. I cant go a year without seeing a show here now. Bravo!

I saw MacBeth and it was a wonderful rendition! What OSF did that was really interesting, not only did OSF show the true opening scene of Lady MacBeth and MacBeth at the funeral of their child they also had a really amazing Lady MacBeth suicide scene that was absolutely ingenious! All in all, Id say Lady MacBeth really stole the show and dominated the stage. If you havent seen it yet, I highly recommend it!

Stunning facility that looks like an English village when you go inside. Very clean, good sight lines and great acoustics. Only had trouble hearing when the actors spoke too fast. Cant wait to see more plays in the future. Bathroom lines are a bit long so be forewarned.

Excellent as usual, we always enjoy our time here!

We saw the most brilliant Othello last night. The quality of the Productions the acting staging or so superb here. Dont miss it if you can
