Just Visiting : Shakespeare in Delaware Park : Merry Wives of Windsor

With summer vacation cropping up, a lot of us are looking for family friendly events that won't break our pocket book. Look no further than our own backyard here in Buffalo, NY, because Shakespeare in Delaware Park is ready to start again, and this season's first show is the Merry Wives of Windsor.

Merry Wives of Windsor
Shakespeare in Delaware Park
June 22,2017 through July 16, 2017

Tuesday through sunday evenings at 7:30 pm you can enjoy a free evening of professional theatre. Bring a blanket or chair to sit on, your own refreshments and someone to enjoy the show with, unless you prefer to sit alone. They do accept donations.

Like past years I do recommend that you head to the park earlier than show time to get better seats, as it is frequently crowded. There are some restaurants in the area, but it's better to bring something with you to enjoy during the show.

If you're uncertain as to the part of Delaware Park the stage is located in, it's basically behind the Albright Knox Art Gallery. Please keep in mind that parking is on a first come first serve basis, so if you wish to park closer to the event you should go early. If you have children there is a wonderful playground close to the staging area so the kids can play before the show if you come early enough.

Anyway, have fun and I hope you all get a chance to check it out.
