From a media release:
Join us for this beloved New York summertime tradition at the Delacorte Theater in Central Park.
SHAKESPEARE IN THE PARK 2011
June 6 - July 30, 2011
Performances begin at 8PM
Performed in repertory for 8 continuous weeks
Shakespeare in the Park is one of one of New York City's most beloved summer traditions. New York
natives and visitors alike have been enjoying free Shakespeare in Central Park since performances began in
1954. Now 57 years after Joseph Papp first conceived the project, The Public Theater is proud to continue to produce Shakespeare in the Park.
With the success of last summer's Shakespeare in the Park productions of The Merchant of Venice and The Winter's Tale, the 2011 Shakespeare in the Park summer season will once again present two Shakespeare plays in repertory, giving audiences eight straight weeks of free Shakespeare at the Delacorte Theater in Central Park.
MEASURE FOR MEASURE
Directed by David Esbjornson
Measure sweeps from the corridors of national power to the intimate confines of the bedroom, and from the convent's chapel to the executioner's block. It is Shakespeare at his grittiest: a bracing and bawdy glimpse of what happens when those in power allow their basest human impulses to range unchecked.
ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL
Directed by Daniel Sullivan
A fairytale for grown-ups, this beguiling fable follows the low-born Helena, one of Shakespeare's most resourceful heroines, as she inventively surmounts obstacle after impossible obstacle in order to win the love of the aristocratic and haughty Count Bertram.
Featuring: Kristen Connolly, John Cullum, Carson Elrod, Joe Forbrich, Danai Gurira, Michael Hayden, AndréHolland, Jordan Lund, David Manis, Dakin Matthews, Caitlin O'Connell, Annie Parisse, Tonya Pinkins, Lorenzo Pisoni, Reg Rogers, and Lucas Caleb Rooney
