Special Thanks to Harriett Lake!
Harriett Lake, local arts patron, has assured the future growth of our new play development program with two major gifts to the Shakespeare Festival. Not only is she the lead donor in the Orlando-UCF Shakespeare Festival Eminent Scholar Endowed Chair in Playwriting, a million dollar endowment in partnership with the University of Central Florida designed to attract well known playwrights to the festival and UCF, she has also donated an additional $50,000 per year toward the operational costs of The Harriett Lake Festival of New Plays for the next four years. Bearing her generous gifts in mind, the new play development program now also bears her name. From the staff, board, and patrons of the Festival, "Thank you, Harriett!" The Shakespeare Festival's commitment to the development of new plays is greatly helped by your generous gifts.
