Orlando Shakes is sad to learn of the passing of Ford Kiene, a friend and supporter of our theater for many years. His love and generosity to not just Orlando Shakes, but to all of Orlando’s Central Florida arts and culture community, was extraordinary.

Please join us in remembering our friend, and the legacy he created throughout our community.

Now cracks a noble heart. Good night, sweet prince,
And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest!

— William Shakespeare, Hamlet, Act 5, Scene 2
