Hilary Dennis

Hilary Dennis is a NY-based actor and producer. In 2019, she co-founded Elsewhere Shakespeare, a punk Shakespeare theatre company, and has co-produced and acted in Hamlet (Hamlet), King Lear (Cordelia/Fool), and an experimental tour of Twelfth Night (Viola). As an independent producer, she has raised over $30,000 to fund productions of Macbeth (Northampton Center for the Arts, MA) and Hamlet (La MaMa ETC, NYC).
