Outdoor Theatre Returns to Nashua this July |
|
The Beard of Avon
by Amy Freed
Directed by James Phillips
Free! Greeley Park, Nashua
July 26, 27, Aug 2 & 3 at 7:30pm
Bring your lawn chair and bug spray and enjoy another summer of free theatre in Greeley Park on Concord Street in Nashua! This year's show, The Beard of Avon, is a comedy that explores the early days of William Shakespeare in London and asks the question, Is he truly the author of all of those great plays? As real historical figures mix with and become the prototypes for well recognized characters such as Beatrice and Benedict and King Lear, you will delight in the mystery being explored.
Starring Max Bisantz as Will, Gail Angellis as Queen Elizabeth, Steve Triebes as Edward DeVere and other local favorites Arthur Barlas, John Decareau, Suzanne Delle, Wally Pineault, Eric St. Cyr and Don Tongue, The Beard of Avon is sure to delight those who are deeply familiar with the world of Shakespeare and his contemporaries and those who just want to sit on the grass under the stars and enjoy a fun comedy.
Sponsored by NH State Council on the Arts, the City of Nashua, Nashua Rotary West, Building #19 Foundation, Lincoln Financial Group and Nashua Corporation.
