Shakespeare Festival St. Louis SHAKE38 Kicks off April 19


William Shakespeare's words will
electrify the city with the fourth annual SHAKE38, a wildly successful urban
event set for April 19-23.  This year’s SHAKE38 will culminate on the Bard’s
449th birthday and serve as a precursor to Shakespeare Festival St. Louis’
production of “Twelfth Night” the following month, May 24 through June 16, at
Shakespeare Glen in Forest Park. The marathon reading/performance of
Shakespeare's 38 play-canon is limited only by one's imagination. New to this
year’s line-up will be a series of daily Blind Shakes in which members of the
community are invited to a designated location and encouraged to participate in
a reading of a play.  The script to be read will be distributed on
site.  For a detailed schedule of SHAKE38 events, please visit www.sfstl.com/whats-on/shake-38/.
