Asheville, North Carolina

Montford Park Players (MPP) is North Carolina’s longest-running Shakespeare company, devoted to providing free, high-quality outdoor theatre since 1973. Nestled in Asheville’s historic Montford neighborhood in the Hazel Robinson Amphitheatre, MPP produces an extensive 20-week summer season featuring Shakespeare’s plays alongside other classic and contemporary works. 

The City of Asheville built the amphitheatre in 1983 due to MPP’s success and growing audience. Beyond summer outdoor performances, MPP presents indoor productions in fall and winter as part of their expanded season.
