Shakespeare in the Park “Hamlet”

The Summit Players present Shakespeare in the Park “Hamlet”. July 10 at the Historic Pavilion.

5:30 – 6:15 p.m. Kids Workshop:

Before each show, Summit players teach a 45 minute workshop for kids (and fun adults) on Shakespearean text, general theatre practices, and how Shakespeare used nature in his plays. 

Who can participate in workshop?
Anyone and everyone! Our workshops are specifically built for children ages 8 and up, but younger children and “fun adults” can still have plenty of fun and learn things they never knew about Shakespeare! More than just facts, our workshops are about practical skills and “learning by doing” – even adult members of our audience can embrace their inner child by playing Shakespeare’s characters and experimenting with his text. Our workshops are a life-long learning experience!

The workshop will be held near the Doughboy Trail parking lot.

A vehicle admission pass is required to enter the park. Pets are not permitted at this site. 

Rain or shine, the show goes on:  Summit Players Theatre never cancels a show before the scheduled curtain time. The touring company will make every effort to perform outdoors, including playing in light rain. Also, the performance may be delayed to allow weather to pass. A decision to play or move indoors will be made based on available weather information, and announced via the Summit Players’ social media channels.
