More information on Free Shakespeare in the Park

Shakespeare in the Park is theater the way it was meant to be, where you can picnic and relax as you enjoy high quality entertainment free of walls and free of charge. It is a yearly, mid-to-late summer event featuring one of Shakespeare's plays on weekends and holidays, and it also takes place in Oakland, Pleasanton, and Cupertino. This is a great opportunity to have a nice day out with the whole family and expose the little ones to the masterpieces of drama and comedy, like King Lear, Hamlet, Twelfth Night, and A Midsummer Night's Dream. They even have live music. The venue for this cultural experience changes every year, so check the website for specific location information, dates, and show times.
