Another outdoor arts experience is coming to Crystal Palace Park this summer, when touring company Shakespeare in the Squares rolls out its stage and backdrop for their 2024 production of All’s Well That Ends Well.
This year sees 31 performances across 25 venues, the largest number of shows since the company’s inception. An additional week has been added this year to help squeeze in dates including Crystal Palace Park.
“Shakespeare in the Squares is a highlight of London’s cultural offerings each summer,” say the producers.
“With a commitment to tailoring each performance to its venue, the company provides the audience with a truly unique show every time. The company works closely with the garden committees and other local organisations to foster an intimate experience for each London community.”
Dame Judi has said about All’s Well That Ends Well, “A beautiful and complex play rarely performed, summed up by the exquisite line… ‘The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together’.”
Casting for the 2024 tour is due to be announced in May.
The tour begins in Leinster Square, W2, on June 5, with Crystal Palace Park’s performance coming up later that same week, on Friday June 7, from 7pm – ideal for a summer’s evening picnic. But as the producers advise… “Bring your picnic, wine, sunglasses, pac-a-mac and participatory spirit and let’s make a fairytale wish: All’s Well That Ends Well!”
