Appears to fail WP:GNG. Recommending either outright deletion, or merging content with American Shakespeare Center. Considering the lack of references, outright deletion is probably the wiser of the two at this point. SchuminWeb (Talk) 01:27, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

merge I found some usable sources[1][2], but given the existence American Shakespeare Center article and the fact that most articles on the program also reference the center, I think it makes more sense to merge. Sailsbystars (talk) 11:50, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merging this material ito the American Shakespeare Center makes sense, but the current page should either redirect to Shakespeare in performance, or be a disambiguation between the Center and the performance page. I had expected to find a dissertation here on how Shakespeare is performed, given the title. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 15:27, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

delete I'm unable to find evidence of notability that satisfies WP:ORG#Primary_criteria. All sources regarding this program seem to be highly local media and references to be based on press releases. Alf.laylah.wa.laylah (talk) 18:10, 22 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This should probably have been speedy deleted under G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion. It is an article about a single course offered by a single college. No evidence of any significant coverage in reliable independent secondary sources (as required by WP:N). No attempt is made to establish a real-world context or perspective outside the realm of promotional material, and neither is there likely to be any. I have no objections to mentioning this in another article if its deemed appropriate, but that should not affect or even slow down the deletion of this article. —gorgan_almighty (talk) 13:16, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
