Please join us in celebrating Shakespeare on the Sound’s 30th Anniversary season with a performance of our family-friendly Much Ado About Nothing for Kids! A 30-minute interactive version of our mainstage season’s show, most appropriate for students in grades K-5 and their families. Experience this brand new adaptation of one of Shakespeare’s most beloved comedies created by our 2026 Apprentice Company. Enjoy witty banter, playful hijinks, and general Shakespearean merriment in this performance that is fun for kids and a silly refresher on the play for adults!
Learn more about Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing on Tuesday, May 19th at 7PM here at the library before our abbreviated performance and don’t forget Shakespeare on the Sound’s Summer production from June 10th – June 28th in Rowayton’s Pinkney Park.
Shakespeare on the Sound is committed to producing affordable, professional open-air productions of the plays of William Shakespeare and related authors in Fairfield County. Working in collaboration with area civic, business and educational institutions, Shakespeare on the Sound presents an annual theatre festival, which brings great dramatic works to a broad audience, creating a forum for learning, appreciation and celebration. Our Educational programming goal is to build community through the arts, giving the works of Shakespeare a vibrant life beyond the summer festival with a variety of school, library, adult education, and art programs as a means to reach a diverse cross-section of people of all ages and economic backgrounds.
