Announcing the plays this season that feature the gleefully wicked Richard III, never before seen at Sand Harbor, paired nicely with the charming and beautiful Bard favorite, A Midsummer Night's Dream.

2008 Playbill
Shakespeare Performances
Richard III
Among Shakespeare’s histories, KING RICHARD THE THIRD s the most violent, sensual, vivid, and hilarious. The hunchbacked Richard III is a gleeful villain, slaughtering his way through family members and friends, allowing nothing to stand in the way of his bloody path to the throne.
A Midsummer Nights Dream
The concept for A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM is inspired by our gorgeous setting on the shore of the lake. The fairies will be powerful spirits of the earth, air, and water, who create a magical world where the young lovers leave their everyday lives behind and rediscover themselves and each other.
Cambio
CAMBIO is an original musical that we are creating here at the Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival. It’s a re-telling of The Hunchback of Notre Dame, set in modern day Havana, Cuba. In our show, the Hunchback’s timeless story of a young man who people reject as a monster, and his love for a beautiful, rebellious young woman, will take place in contemporary Havana, a city of simmering tensions, on the brink of tremendous change.
