• First Monday Event

The first Monday that the Company is gathered, the TSF Guild sponsors an event at a local restaurant to welcome the Company to the Texas Shakespeare Festival and to begin making friends.

• Strike Dinner
On the Monday after the closing performance, the TSF Guild bids the Company farewell by providing dinner for them on Strike Day. The Strike Dinner provides a way for the Guild Members to express their appreciation to the Company.

• Post–Show Talk Back
At the conclusion of each of the opening night productions, the Company gathers on the stage and entertains questions from the audience. It is an exciting time to share with the company some of the ideas associated with each production.

• Pre–Show Introductions
Before the evening performance on Thursday and Friday, beginning promptly at 6:30 p.m. in the theatre lobby, a 30-minute introduction to that evening's production is presented.

• Open Changeover
After each weekend matinee, the audience is invited to watch the changeover of set and lights. A TSF Company member will informally narrate each changeover.
