Shakespeare in the Park is one of one of New York City's most beloved summer traditions. New York natives and visitors alike have been enjoying free Shakespeare in Central Park since performances began in 1954. Now 56 years after Joseph Papp first conceived the project, The Public Theater is proud to continue to produce Shakespeare in the Park.

The Shakespeare in the Park 2010 summer repertory season has now closed. A staged concert presentation of The Capeman with music by Paul Simon will be performed at The Delacorte Theater August 14-16.
