This article has a lot of good information in it about the Stratford Festival. It is great to read if you are wanting to actually go to the festival. The whole article reads like a ‘visit us’ page from the festival itself. As someone who likes to know as much as possible about where they are going and how things work there before actually going I very much appreciate this article and how it is formatted as well as how straightforward the information is delivered. I appreciate the section about the accessibility access. Making theatre more accessible to everyone is really important so having this information readily available to everyone is the easiest way for people to feel comfortable going to the theater if they need the things listed. It is just a very convenient article with all of this information on one page, especially since all of the information is in different tabs on the festival's actual website.
The reason I clicked on this article was because I absolutely love theater festivals. Not because I love theater but because of the opportunities and exposure to theater they provide to communities and artists. I think this is especially important to younger children because I feel like it is important to be exposed to that at a younger age. The Stratford Theater Festival offers classes for grades seven through twelve giving students a chance to explore the festival and explore theater. I find it also really amazing that they offer discounted tickets and different opportunities and deals for people who can't spend a ton of money. This gives a chance for anyone to be able to enjoy this festival and make it accessible for everyone. The festival itself makes sure its Accessible in the sense of having ASL interpreters, special access parking and gendernutral bathrooms. These accessibles give the opportunity for everyone to be able to attend the Stratford Festival.
