Back the Bard 2016: Twelfth Night

Donation protected
Help keep Shakespeare in Wheaton's Memorial Park!


EVENT DETAILS
Dates: Friday, August 26 & Saturday, August 27
Time: 6P Park Opens | 7P Performance
Location: Memorial Park, 208 W. Union Ave.

A co-production of the Wheaton Park District and Wheaton College Arena Theater, this annual FREE two-night event attracts more than 2,000 guests.

Shakespeare in the Park employs a mix of student and professional actors, many of them college alumni, who often come from coast-to-coast to participate.

It’s not just your average community theater in the park. It's a professional production with a high caliber of acting, staging, lighting, and polish that provides access to the arts to anyone from anywhere.

While Shakespeare in the Park is free to attend, and we are committed to keeping it that way, it comes with a steep price tag.

Lighting and sound alone for the professional-quality production costs thousands of dollars. Other production costs include costumes, set production, transporting and housing the actors, and other event materials.

Corporate sponsors help cover some expenses, but unfortunately not all.

Your donation is crucial to help keep high-quality theater in Memorial Park for thousands of Wheaton residents and visitors.
