“The outdoor stage… couldn’t have been more perfect. Swift and exciting – an audience of any age can appreciate the action. And the beautiful grounds, delicious picnics and even more delicious tragedy are a truly enjoyable experience.”

- Sarah Lawson, The News Journal

“Successful… A very good sign that Will is alive and will continue to prosper in Delaware.”

- Greer Firestone, The Community News

“The Delaware Shakespeare Festival serves up a treat… The entire cast is to be commended for their ability to internalize the rhythms and cadences of the writing so that we are able to grasp the meaning and wrap ourselves up in the story. What a joy to sit back and let the cast’s excellent rendition of the words wash over us, a concerto in language.”

- Ethel Guy, Stage Magazine

Brandywine Hundred, Del. — It’s one of William Shakespeare’s most famous tragedies – a harrowing tale of ambition, greed and vengeance – but to say the play’s name aloud is to risk invoking the 400-year-old curse that has been blamed for audience riots and onstage injuries.

The Delaware Shakespeare Festival will take its chances when the group performs “Macbeth” for its eighth annual summer production, from July 16 through July 31, at Rockwood Park in Brandywine Hundred.
