The Shadow Players

The Shadow Players Youthful theatre company that makes literary classics (in English) approachable to everyone.

The Shadow Players is a theatre company formed by professors and graduates of the Chinese University of Hong Kong and the University of Hong Kong, and our mission is to make Western classical literature approachable. Our audience grows with every production, and our production of Gogol’s The Government Inspector earned the remark: “This company is making a name for itself as a local company whose work is not to be missed.”

Thank you very much to Varsity CUHK for featuring us in their December issue!
