Shakespeare Festival St. Louis

Live, free theater in the park — what more can you ask for?

On Friday I had the pleasure of “shaking the park” by seeing Othello, this year’s show put on by the Shakespeare Festival St. Louis. It was incredible! I was a tad hesitant when it was suggested that I go see it; I love theater, but Shakespeare? Come on.

If you are unfamiliar with the wonderful things Shakespeare Festival St. Louis is doing, their mission is to produce extraordinary professional Shakespeare, culminating with a free production in Forest Park, and celebrate the language of Shakespeare and artists inspired by his works.

So grab a blanket, picnic basket, a few friends and head to Forest Park. The show runs through June 17th, with each show beginning promptly at 8pm. (I would suggest getting there by at least 6:45pm to find a spot to sit!)

For information about the show, visit their website or follow them on Twitter @shakefestSTL.
