Shakespeare Monologues and Dialogues in the park, August 2025!

We’ve got Theater in the Rough news. We’re taking a vacation this summer 😱 – don’t worry, you’ll survive – BUT we’ve got a plan for Shakespearen fun in the park in August! 😤

Summer Shakespeare is a labor of love and it’s been an amazing project to build and enjoy together since 2010 (!). We love rehearsing, staging and experiencing the show with you in the park but this year we needed to rest and regroup. We’ll be back with renewed energy!

BUT we’d be sad not to gather in the park at all this summer. SO, we’re planning something simpler but still lots of fun, Shakespeare Monologues and Dialogues in the park! 🎉

Start learning your text and mark your calendars:

🗓️ August 24 and 25 at 18:15 in Bloomfield Gardens.

A community evening of Shakespeare. Details coming soon.

📣 Have you always been itching to get onstage?

This event is open for anyone ages 14 and up! No audition necessary but you must learn your monologue by heart. Fill out this form and you can join the roster of our presenters:

And don’t worry. You don’t have to perform. Just come and enjoy the show!

Wishing everyone a (more) peaceful summer,

Beth, Ira, Yam, Natan
