Shakespeare in the Park

Shakespeare performance in a park in front of a large audience

Join us for one of our favorite summer traditions! This exciting partnership between Wheaton College and the Wheaton Park District began in the summer of 2013. The company and cast are made up of Arena Theater students and alumni who have gone on to work as theater professionals. Working collaboratively during a three-week rehearsal period this band of theater-makers produces three delightful performances in Wheaton’s newly renovated Memorial Park. This highly anticipated, professional-level production is free of charge and draws over 3,000 people every year.  For more information about the park, visit their website.
