Shakespeare in the Park 2025 - New York
Shakespeare in the Park
Dates: June through till August in 2025. This annual event, held since 1962 at the Delacorte Theater in 1962! At this time, we are still not 100% sure it will take place, as the Delacrote Theatre has been closed since the Fall of 2023 for a $78 million renovation. The summer of 2025 is supposed to include Shakespeare in the Park again.
Over 5 million people have visited since 1962. Free outdoor productions of Shakespeare's plays, often host famous actors and actresses. What to think of James Earl Jones in Othello, Meryl Streep in The Taming of the Shrew, and Al Pacino in The Merchant of Venice.

Note: the 2024 summer production of Shakespeare in the Park will not take place, as the Delacorte Theatre undergoes renovations.
