It is with profound sadness that Commonwealth Shakespeare Company acknowledges the passing of Janet Bailey, a long-time friend, donor, and advisor to CSC, whose impact in Arts Administration is felt by so many in our industry.

We honor her extraordinary legacy—one of creativity, courage, mentorship, and a transformative belief in the power of the Arts.
