Last year's festival drew more than 37,000 people. This summer, the festival features productions of Henry V and Much Ado About Nothing.
We talk about the productions with this year’s directors and a pair of cast members. And we learn why cast and crew members remain dedicated to providing free Shakespeare in the park.
We’re joined by: Jack Young, the festival’s artistic director and director of Much Ado About Nothing; Lenny Banovez, director of Henry V and artistic director of Titan Theatre Company in New York; Demetria Thomas, an actor who plays Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing; and Brendan Marshall-Rashid, an actor who plays the title role in Henry V.
