Bird-On-A-Cliff Theatre Company

Mission

We propose to produce plays that will attract and build a cross section audience old and young in an effort to maintain a theatrical tradition of theatre going. We plan to accomplish this by offering productions that will challenge and entertain audiences. We as producers will accomplish this by staging original works as well as revivals that are seldom seen but continue to challenge and entertain audiences. These works will be by playwrights from America and around the world.

History

Since 1995, Bird-On-A-Cliff, has produced free outdoor Shakespeare in the town of Woodstock. BOAC began with a production of "Much Ado About Nothing" at the old Woodstock Playhouse site. In early spring of 1996, BOAC was given the approval by the Woodstock Town Board, to construct an outdoor Elizabethan Stage designed by Broadway designer Sal Tagliarino at the Comeau Property in Woodstock. In 2005 BOAC received a matching grant from the Catskill Watershed Committee and rebuilt it's Elizabethan Stage; after which BOAC entered into a formal lease agreement with the Town of Woodstock to use the stage to continue to present free Shakespeare on the Comeau property through the years.
