Summer on the Lawn: Shakespeare in Our Parks
July 12, 2026
Overview
Classical Actors Ensemble presents the 12th season of “Shakespeare in Our Parks,” featuring a play about a wizard exiled to a remote island for … 12 years! This year’s tumultuous tragicomedy, “The Tempest,” follows the adventures of Prospero and his family as they shipwreck their enemies and decide whether to enact revenge or seek redemption. Batten down the hatches and brace yourself for a production that twists and turns through tears and laughter, betrayal and forgiveness, solemnity and whimsy in one of the last plays that William Shakespeare wrote.
Picnics, lawn chairs, sun umbrellas, and blankets are welcome. Note that the performance is in an open field with minimal shade. Please plan accordingly. Restrooms will be available for use at the Minnesota Humanities Event Center. Can’t make it on July 12?
