The beauties of a Northern California summer only enhance productions at California Shakespeare Theater’s amphitheater, not to mention environmental “effects” -- like hearing coyotes cry or seeing hawks swoop overhead. Cal Shakes also offers a wide range of pre- and post-show talks and children’s programs that include performing abridged versions of Shakespeare classics.
In spite of having all their archives -- and their offices -- destroyed by Hurricane Katrina, the Shakespeare Festival at Tulane continues its fifteen year history of outstanding Shakespeare productions and educational programs in conjunction with Tulane University. This summer’s offerings include the rowdy and brawling Taming of the Shrew and a production of Twelfth Night presented by the festival’s high school student summer program.
As many of these are open air events, dress accordingly. Check out our other tips for family-friendly Shakespearean experience here.
