Montford Park Players
Asheville’s Montford Park Players is North Carolina’s longest running Shakespeare theater company dedicated to providing exceptional dramatic entertainment for the enrichment, education, and enjoyment of its audiences, free of charge.
The Montford Park Players is a 501 (c)(3) registered non-profit which performs Shakespeare and other classic plays during summer months at the outdoor Hazel Robinson Amphitheater in the Montford Community Center Complex at 92 Gay Street in Asheville, NC. These performances are free to the public, though donations are requested to keep our theater running.
Built into a natural hillside, the Amphitheatre can comfortably accommodate over one thousand people. There are seven level tiers and a sloping lawn above the tiers, perfect for a picnic blanket and/or setting up portable chairs.
Outside food and beverages, including alcoholic beverages, are allowed at the Hazel Robinson Amphitheatre. The concession stand and tavern sell snacks, both salty and sweet, and offer a selection of local beers, wine and non-alcoholic beverages.
