Annual Appeal 2025
“And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything.”
(As You Like It, Act 2, scene 1)

This year, QSE celebrates its 24th birthday and the launch of our 8th Annual Appeal! Over the years we have seen growing support for our ensemble which has allowed us to continue creating, facilitating, training and developing. All with a commitment to accessibility, creativity and strengthening connections with our community.
Community and connection are at the heart of everything we do and in the ways people engage with us. From sharing powerful stories on stage, offering diverse training pathways, creating opportunities for youth and community engagement and fostering an artist-driven ensemble.
Our 2025 is full of projects including:
- Performing our funny, fast, and accessible Shakespeare Shorts shows to a wide range of audiences
- Producing our mainstage season of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream
- Increasing the opportunity to welcome new audiences through our A Night at the Theatre initiative
- Providing accessible Relaxed Performances for our mainstage shows
- Providing development opportunities through our training scholarships
- Fostering creative development for members of our ensemble
This is all made possible through the support of our community and generous donors.
To help support our ensemble, you can donate to our 2025 Annual Appeal throughout June. Donations to QSE over $2 are tax deductible. No matter how big or small, they will be put to great use!
