Summer Shakespeare Festivals
Jul 14th, 2009 Posted in Literature | no comment »| Looking for something to do that’s inexpensive, fun and entertaining? It’s still not too late to experience Shakespeare. There’s a real good chance that there’s a play going on near you sometime very soon. Shakespeare Fellowship (www.shakespearefellowship.org) has a comprehensive list of Shakespeare Festivals and Theatres throughout the world. Some of the links are broken, but it’s still a good place to start, and you can always google ‘Shakespeare Festival’ and your own state or city. Many are very reasonably priced while some are even free. |  . |
New Hampshire has “Shakespeare in the Valley,” for instance, and the good news is that even if you’re not in New Hampshire, you may be able to catch up with “Shakespeare in the Valley” another time, since they travel around the East Coast the rest of the year. If you’ve been suffering from “Bad Shakespeare Syndrome,” they aim to cure it. Take the test on their website: http://www.shakespeareinthevalley.com/.
If you’re going to be in the Houston area, The Miller Outdoor Theatre is offering free performances of Twelfth Night and Pericles in August (as well as a bunch of other non-Shakespeare offerings).
Hie thee to your favorite search engine and find out if there’s a play coming up near you.
