DCPA's Free Shakespeare In The Parking Lot Community Performances Return April 9

The Denver Center for the Performing Arts (DCPA) has announced the return of the Education program, Shakespeare in the Parking Lot, kicking off its seventh season this spring. Shakespeare in the Parking Lot will go on tour throughout the Denver metro area to perform two free abridged versions of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Shakespeare in the Parking Lot is exactly what it sounds like - stripped-down, abridged versions of Romeo and Juliet, A Midsummer Night's Dream, and Macbeth centered around a pickup truck "set" in the middle of a parking lot. The cast members are local actors and DCPA teaching artists, including Shannon Altner, Grant Bowman, Iliana Lucero Barron, Chloe McLeod, Camryn Nailah Torres, Christian Ray Robinson, Ryan Omar Stack and Justin Walvoord.

The free seven community performance tour will take place from April 9 - May 14. For more information, visit denvercenter.org.
