'The Two Noble Kinsmen'

A Shakespeare play you’ve never seen? For the first time in its history, Kingsmen Shakespeare Company presents The Two Noble Kinsmen, which scholars believe to be the final work of the Bard’s world-altering career. In what is thought to be a collaboration with his protégé, John Fletcher, Shakespeare reworks an already famous tale by the great Geoffrey Chaucer. In it, the cousins and lifelong friends Arcite and Palamon find themselves on opposite sides of a bitter love triangle. Come treat yourself to this tragicomic story of betrayal, war, madness and all-consuming passion.

Festival grounds open at 5:30 p.m. for pre-show picnicking and entertainment.
