About us
The Twin Cities Shakespeare Readers had its first meeting in April 2022. We meet once a month to discuss a play by William Shakespeare, the greatest writer who ever lived.
We usually meet on the last Monday of every month, 6-8 p.m., at the Minneapolis Central Library in downtown Minneapolis, usually in Room N-202.
We also post other events that may be of interest to our members.
We would be happy to send you a pdf file that tells you more about our group and also lists upcoming performances of Shakespeare plays in Minnesota. You can contact us by email at: TCSR.MINN@gmail.com.

Minneapolis MN 55454"Blithe Spirit" by Noël Coward
Join us for the final dress rehearsal of "Blithe Spirit". The cost is $5.00 at the door. Cash preferred. NO LATE SEATING.
Play Description:
In this sparkling supernatural comedy, novelist Charles Condomine invites a medium to conduct a séance – but instead of inspiration, he accidentally conjures his late (and mischievous) first wife, Elvira. As Elvira wreaks ghostly havoc on Charles and his current marriage, things go from strange to absolutely otherworldly. With razor-sharp wit, eccentric characters, and Coward’s signature charm, Blithe Spirit is a delightfully witty reminder that the past has a way of lingering… especially when it’s not quite ready to leave.There is also a Pay-What-You-Can performance on Monday, June 29, 2026, 7:30 pm.
PARKING:
1. Parking is NOT free at parking meters in the evening, but it is not expensive. About $5.
2. You can also park nearby in the ramp of the Courtyard by Marriott Hotel, 1500 Washington Ave S, Minneapolis, MN 55454.
