On June 24 and 25, Montana InSite Theatre (MIST) returns to Tippet Rise for the second year to lead a new program, “Leaf-Taking: Shakespeare on the Rise.” These 80-minute-long guided walking tours take visitors to several locations throughout Tippet Rise’s main Cottonwood Campus and feature scenes, monologues, and songs that bring Shakespeare’s words into dialogue with the landscape and artwork of Tippet Rise. The program also honors the 400th anniversary of the landmark publication known as the First Folio, the first published collection of Shakespeare’s plays.
There will be six walking productions offered on both June 24 and 25, beginning at 11 AM. Reservations are required. The cost is $10 per person, free to guests 21 and under (reservations are still required for those 21 and under). Guests who attend one of these events are welcome to explore Tippet Rise’s main Cottonwood Campus before or after their tour with MIST. Lunch will also be available at Will’s Shed featuring an assortment of to-go style sandwiches, bowls, snacks, and drinks from Red Lodge-based Samurai Sue’s Everyday Foods
