The Great Southwest Shakespeare Festival

In the summer of 2021, after a year’s hiatus due to COVID-19, The Lyric Theatre produced its second presentation of The Great Southwest Shakespeare Festival, again at Riverside Park but this time in their new Festival tent, provided by the City of Swift Current. That Festival featured two plays – Shakespeare’s ever-popular romantic comedy, Twelfth Night, and the spooky tragedy, Macbeth.

WRITE OUT LOUD

A total of eight readings and one showcase were held between September and May.  Authors were representative of a variety of genres:  historical fiction, memoir, history/nonfiction, poetry, children’s literature, science fiction, and fiction.

The Lyric Digital Stage, saved Write Out Loud this season, as all of it went digital.  All of our authors prepared videos, that were sewed together into a cohesive whole.  These were well received, and continue to be viewed long after the event takes place.
