Modeled on the popular Relay for Life fundraiser, Shakespeare for Life uses the works of the Bard to give back to those in need. It's a week-long, marathon reading of Shakespeare's plays culminating in a closing ceremony that honors the memory of loved ones lost to cancer. Free Shakespeare's Chris Shea spoke with Kaleidoscope host Juliet Fromholt about how people can get involved in this signature event and what's coming up this summer from Free Shakespeare.

Shakespeare for Life kicks off on April 26th and runs through May 3rd at the Dayton Visual Arts Center.
