Idaho Shakespeare Festival Faces Delays Due To Virus Outbreak
The Idaho Shakespeare Festival is likely to face delays for their 2020 season according to a new report.
"We know that we're going to open our season probably later than scheduled," said Charlie Fee, producing artistic director for the Idaho Shakespeare Festival. "We have a lot of employment as well as health and safety here in Idaho and we need to coordinate all of this."
The five-show season typically runs from late May to late September.
The 2020 season is set to include:

Will the earnest endeavor to restore a young romance elicit an unexpected change of heart from the erstwhile collaborators?
