The plays in Schiller park are wonderful! Our family looks forward to going every season to see a Shakespeare play. We take a blanket and picnic dinner and enjoy the evening. It is free, although they ask for a donation, this year they asked rather aggressively. But they do not charge admission. Bathrooms are located in the athletic building and as long as it isn't raining just before the performance it is on with the show. We've taken kids from 4 and right up to adult. Our fav so far was A Midsummer Night's Dream!

For those of you who haven't made it to Schiller Park yet this season, you still have 2 more weekends before the end of the season. The season runs Thursday thru Sunday nights until September 1st. This was the season of Tainted Love. Actor's Theater kicked off their 2019 season with a production of Beowulf (and the Bard) at the Mad Lab Theater before moving to Schiller Park for productions of Romeo and Juliet (Shakespeare), Little Women (Louisa May Alcott), As You Like It (Shakespeare) and closing out the season with Les Liaisons Dangereuses (Dangerous Liaisons by Christopher Hampton). I wrestled with a 4 vs 5-star rating but ultimately down-graded them to a 4-star for production issues this season. I'm not sure when they started using microphones mounted on the stage floor as opposed to having the microphones worn by the cast members but they had some real issues with the audio this season. I first noticed issues during their production of Little Women but was still able to enjoy the production. However, during the production of As You Like It - the sound issues, coupled with the Shakespearian language/accents - made the play very difficult to follow. When I mentioned my concerns to an usher at intermission, he basically blew me off and said - everything was working as it should. It seems they got the audio issues resolved in time for the final show of the season. Despite the audio issues that plagued 2 of the productions, Actor's Theater still presented a very good season of summer theater in the park and the cast and crew should be commended for their efforts. Looking forward to the 2020 season.
