The Winter's Tale

Celebrated for lively, expansive productions by William Shakespeare that fill the outdoor stage and spill over into the surrounding woods, Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum opens its 2024 summer repertory season with The Winter’s Tale, a sweeping romance of passion and forgiveness. There’s no better way to watch Shakespeare come alive than by spending a summer afternoon or evening at Theatricum's spectacular amphitheater, carved into a rustic hillside in Topanga. Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum, 1419 N. Topanga Canyon Blvd., Topanga, CA 90290 (midway betwreen PCH and the 101/Ventura Freeway); $15-$48 (premium seats available for $60); The amphitheater is terraced into the hillside, so audience members are advised to dress casually (warmly for evenings) and bring cushions for bench seating. Patrons are welcome to arrive early and picnic before a performance. For a complete schedule of repertory performances, call (310) 455-3723 or go to www.theatricum.com.
