Syracuse Shakespeare-In-The-Park

Syracuse Shakespeare-In-The-Park is a theater company that brings the Bard’s plays to Syracuse in period style. The aim is to stage Shakespeare as close as possible to the way it was done in his own day, more than four centuries ago, with the language and the spirit of the original.

Seeing a play the way its first audiences did is a different experience from a modern reworking. With a park setting as part of the name, it is the kind of outing that works for a summer evening with friends, family or a first-time Shakespeare crowd.
