The region’s only free performing arts festival returns for a 6th year beginning June 2. The 2011 festival will build on the record-breaking success of the 2010 event and feature two full-length productions, a pre-show performance series and educational workshops for young people.
The 2011 Charlotte Shakespeare Festival is dedicated to the memory of Ken Akers, our friend, fellow actor, and Board President.
