KINGMAN – Beale Street Theater’s Spring show will return after its postponement during COVID-19 in March. June 25 and 26, director Bob Blake and cast will be performing at 7 p.m. at Metcalf Park, 315 W. Beale Street both nights. The show is a satirical summary of every Shakespeare work, including that of Hamlet and Romeo and Juliet. Black Bridge Brewery will also be selling Shakespeare-themed beer during the show in support of the theater.
The show will be performed on the stage at Metcalf Park with a minimal set designed specifically to be portable to and from the venue. The costumes are ridiculous and colorful, with one actor dressed as a woman in the true spirit of The Bard’s era. One of the three actors will be traveling back from his home in Minnesota to finish the show for Kingman.
Beale Street Theater is taking great care to minimize any issues COVID might cause. Performing in the park will give the audience an open-air venue for social distancing. The theater also recommends that audience members bring their own chairs to minimize any cross-contaminations of the virus. Among these precautions, the theater is taking many others to ensure safety of volunteers and audiences alike.
During these unstable times, Beale Street Theater greatly appreciates the support the community shows towards local businesses and non-profit organizations. Come out and support the local theater community as well as the local downtown brewery.
Single tickets are $12 per person and are on sale online at https://www.bealestreettheater.com/tickets/ or at the gates before each show.
