Shakespeare in the Park - Backyard Bard: Julius Caesar

Adapted and Directed by Sarah Stillion

Backyard Bard presents two stripped-down productions of Shakespeare’s plays, each one hour long, and both performed by a small ensemble of versatile actors.

Backyard Bard was born out of a desire to bring Shakespeare to smaller parks and new audiences in underserved neighborhoods. But we don’t just perform in the parks - Backyard Bard is also available for private parties. If you are interested in hosting a performance, contact us at greenstage@greenstage.org.
