MSC will present readings of three Shakespeare plays at the upcoming Shakespeare In the Park event:

11:30 AM – Romeo and Juliet
2:00 PM – A Midsummer Night’s Dream
4:00 PM – Henry the Sixth, A Tiger’s Heart (with the generous cooperation of Ithaca Shakespeare Company and Stephen Ponton)

Park shelter seating will be available, and attendees are also welcome to bring their own seating and blankets. Rennebohm Park is located near Hilldale on Madisons west side, with an official street address of 115 N. Eau Claire Avenue. It is also bordered by Sheboygan Avenue, Segoe Road, and Regent Street.Individuals and organizations interested in performing in the festival are invited to submit their proposal on the event website.
