RSP is a new Community Theatre collaboration between the Riverdale Repertory Company, the University of Mount Saint Vincent, and Christ Church Riverdale. Our mission is to bring free outdoor Shakespeare to audiences throughout Riverdale.

Our inaugural production is an abridged 90 minute version of A Midsummer Night's Dream, to be performed outdoors August 27-30 at multiple locations throughout Riverdale, NY. We encourage audience members to bring lawn chairs, blankets and picnics.

We are a fully volunteer-based company, and neither actors nor staff are compensated (other than sound crew.)

This is our first production, and we hope it is merely the beginning. Our goal is to grow in size (and budget!) as we work to develop an annual Shakespeare Festival here in Riverdale.
