Shakespeare in the Park

Experience the magic of live theater under the stars at Stanbery Park’s Shakespeare in the Park, a cherished annual tradition in Cincinnati’s Mt. Washington neighborhood. Presented by the Cincinnati Shakespeare Company and supported by the Cincinnati Parks Foundation, this free, family-friendly event brings timeless works of the Bard to life in a beautiful outdoor setting.​

In 2024, audiences were captivated by a performance of Hamlet, where intrigue and royal drama unfolded against the backdrop of the park’s natural beauty. Looking ahead, mark your calendars for Sunday, August 24, 2025, when A Midsummer Night’s Dream will enchant viewers with its whimsical tale of love and mischief. ​
