Praise for Macbeth
BBP’s production of Macbeth is charmingly no-frills, told with simplicity and clarity. A great gateway into the world of Shakespeare.
Praise for The Boise Bard Players
Minimalist Shakespeare that is compelling, relevant, engaging AND entertaining.
This group is absolute genius! Bringing Shakespeare to a street level performance! Locals performing the heights of the English language while using minimal pomp to evoke the emotions that drive us. Don’t miss the chance to see something incredibly amazing!
BRAVO to The Boise Bard Players! Sooooo much talent! They bring a fresh energy to their productions. Plus their unconventional locations let you be up close and personal.
It was a new experience for me to be encouraged to take photos during a play, but The Boise Bard Players do quite a few things differently. Their spare productions in unusual locations are a throwback to how plays were often performed in Shakespeare’s time.
If you are looking for a fantastic date night or girls night out, get your tickets to a BBP production!
BBP performs in the simplest of terms to create layers of richly dramatic conflict. Thank you BBP for challenging our preconceived notions of theater and creating another strong artistic voice in Boise.
I love that BBP is mobile and performs in unique environments like the Old Pen, the Bishops’ House, and clients living in assisted living facilities, and I love supporting their mission to make Shakespeare accessible and affordable for our community.
Your performance was remarkable. It’s going to haunt me for a long time! You guys did an amazing job. Very much enjoyed the entire experience.
Your cast was fantastic, and the original take was refreshing and so fun! Making Shakespeare accessible is difficult and you all succeeded. Loved it!
