Commonwealth Shakespeare Company: To Be, or Not To Be, Digital is the Question
Commonwealth Shakespeare Company (CSC) is a performing arts non-profit organization founded in 1996. It has a strong and presumably loyal following for its annual outdoor production of Shakespeare, called Free Shakespeare on the Common. However, it has limited data to prove this and to cross-promote its other for-fee services. The data it has is held in various databases. Further its analytics and marketing resources are limited. Meanwhile, pressure on the live performing arts industry continues to mount as digital entertainment options grow. Recognizing the disruption that is underway, CSC begins to explore virtual reality's potential and influence on the performing arts. In 2017, while consulting for a team at Google, CSC's founder and a team at Google determined it would be valuable for all parties to produce and release a virtual reality version of Hamlet. With the support of Google and a few major donors, the Hamlet 360: Thy Father's Spirit project was released in January 2019. The case centers on CSC's struggle to meet immediate responsibilities while exploring new digital models and their potential value to and influence on the performing arts. The case is designed for classroom discussion but is also well-suited to student projects related to digital transformation, mobile app design, and more.
