2013 Shakespeare by the Sea
The Newport Beach City Arts Commission once again presents a weekend of lively Shakespearean entertainment with two different productions performed by professional Shakespearean actors.
"King John"
Saturday, July 20, Preshow: 6:45pm; Play: 7-9pm, Bonita Canyon Sports Park
Shakespeare’s own “Game of Thrones,” King John is filled with secret alliances, corruption and greed. It’s a poetic and powerful tale of a country’s struggle to unite under a single legitimate ruler.
"All's Well That Ends Well"
Sunday, July 21, Preshow: 6:45pm; Play: 7-9pm, Bonita Canyon Sports Park
Trickery and charades abound in this raucous comedy about Helena’s unrequited love and the lengths to which she goes to win her heart’s desire. Magic cures, two rings and a disguised heroine are needed to 'trick' her love into becoming the Prince Charming he never was!
