This collaboration of Kensington artists, organizations, and community members used Shakespeare in Clark Park's home base production of PERICLES as a launching point. The show focuses on themes of childhood friendships, neighborhoods we love but no longer visit, fond memories from moments in parks, and "corny jokes that really made us laugh." It's sister show, Pericles in Germantown, is a Germantown community creation spear-headed by director Seema Sueko and lead writer Angela Bey that runs in Vernon Park from August 28th & 29th.
