06.15.11-07.23.11 SHAKESPEARE IN THE PARK

$7-$10 The Bard is back this summer, living on through Shakespeare in the Park. Now in its 40th year, the event draws thousands of visitors annually. However, this year’s live theater series kicks off with a non-Shakespearian play, “Cyrano de Bergerac”, by Edmond Rostand. The decision came after much discussion, concurring that the play carries the same spirit that Shakespeare lovers would enjoy. The story follows the unattractive, big-nosed Cyrano who’s in love with Roxanne. But she fancies the more handsome Christian, so Cyrano selflessly agrees to help him win her heart by writing beautiful poetry that Christian presents to her as his own. For Shakespeare purists, the festival also features “As You Like It”, the famed story of forbidden love. All performances run at 8:15 p.m. TuesdaySaturday in the Samuell-Grand Amphitheater. 1500 Tenison Parkway, shakespearedallas.org —EmILY Tom AN
