The first Shakespeare Festival BY young people and for young people in Kentucky, returns with three exciting plays!
The Winter's Tale
Seemingly two plays in one, Shakespeare explores the potential for corruption when unchecked power is placed in the hands of kings. This fairy tale like story of friendship, loyalty and the consequences of erroneous certainty is a timely example of redemption, renewal and hope for a new beginning.
May 16 & 18 at 7:30p
The Taming of the Shrew
Set in modern Italy, and easily one of Shakespeare’s most famous comedies, Petruchio engages Katharina in a battle of wits in order to tame her-“from a wild Kate to a Kate conformable as other household Kates.”
May 15 at 7:30p and *May 17 at 2:00p
The Merchant of Venice
An all female cast presents this tale of love, wealth, revenge and the healing power of mercy.
