Every summer, the Public Theater runs a program called Shakespeare in the Park. The organization puts on productions of various Shakespeare plays to audiences at the Delacorte theatre in Central Park. The admission may be free, but you have to pay a price to get your ticket. Many audience members camp out all day to reserve a spot in Central Park just to see a show. Braving it through the heat and other weather conditions takes a lot, but in the end audience members get to enjoy high quality productions of excellent shows in a beautiful atmosphere.
This year's Shakespeare in the Park lineup features
As You Like It by Shakespeare himself, and a reinvented production of Sondheim's
Into the Woods starring Amy Adams as the Baker's Wife and Donna Murphy as the Witch.
Shakespeare in the Park's Mission Statement
Do you think it's worth it to camp out for a whole day for something you really want to see?
