Date Night: Shakespeare in the Park

Last Friday, Ricky and I went uptown at the green to see the Charlotte Shakespeare production of “The Taming of the Shrew”. I’ve never read the play, but we enjoyed it anyway! From previous experiences of this group’s performances, we knew it would be a unique production and cast. This version of Taming of the Shrew was set in the wild, wild, west. How’s that for a distinctive Shakespearean outing?



The play does have an intermission, so why not stop by one of my favorite pizza spots? Fuel Pizza is yummy and affordable! Plus, you can sit outside and still hear the play.


Performances run until June 16, and start at 8pm on Thursday-Saturday evenings, and on Sundays at 6:30pm. Seating is limited, so get there early. There are park benches available, but for closer seating, bring a picnic blanket or chair. We parked underground at the Green (for $5). This event is FREE, but they do ask for donations! Bring cash and support the local arts!

I enjoyed this so much, that I may go again! I hope you do as well! Have a wonderful weekend!
