The Blackfriars Playhouse is the world's only re-creation of Shakespeare's indoor theatre. "Stunning", says Frommer's. Located in historic downtown Staunton, VA, this 300-seat Renaissance theatre offers productions of Shakespeare and classic plays year round that the Washington Post says are "shamelessly entertaining" and the Boston Globe says are "phenomenal...bursting with energy”.

My family buys tickets to "A Christmas Carol" every year. The actors are incredible, and the performance is always impressive. Other, non-holiday Shakespearean performances are equally impressive....

We had a BLAST at the ASC! Saw the 2023 presentation of Much Ado About Nothing. The environment was chill and laid back. The performance was GREAT. We'll def be returning!!

Lovely version of Shakespeare's plays. Slightly modern with updated clothes. True to The Bard. Upstairs bar.
