Production History

10 YEARS OF SHAKESPEARE​

The Southern Shakespeare Company has been producing the FREE Shakespeare in the Park Festival at Cascades Park since 2015! We are excited to celebrate ten years of Shakespeare–and prepare for decades more of keeping the Bard fun and accessible in the Big Bend and beyond.
