Location: Heritage Park

Shakespeare in a park. Free. This June.
Courtyard Shakespeare brings As You Like It to Heritage Park Shelter 9 in Overland Park— three nights only.
Brief summary: Two pairs of feuding brothers set the story in motion. Rosalind, banished by her uncle, disguises herself as a man and escapes to the Forest of Arden with her cousin Celia. Orlando flees his own brother's murderous schemes and ends up there too. In the forest, identities shift, romance blooms in unexpected ways, and everyone finds their way home.
The details: June 11, 12 & 13 | 7:30pm each night | Heritage Park Shelter 9, Overland Park | Free to attend | Suggested donation welcome | ADA accessible | All ages
Bring a lawn chair, drinks and snacks, and a friend who thinks they don't like Shakespeare. They'll be wrong.
About us: Courtyard Shakespeare was founded in 2018 by Dan C. Schmidt, a Kansas high school drama teacher who wanted young artists to work alongside seasoned professionals. After Dan's passing, his former students and colleagues carried his vision forward. This June is our sixth production since then. We keep every show free on purpose; no ticket price, no barrier, anyone in Kansas City can come.
