Shakespeare on the Common - Boston 2011It’s Shakespeare under the stars!

Commonwealth Shakespeare Company's annual free Shakespeare on the Common production will be All's Well That Ends Well, to be performed July 27—Aug. 14 outdoors at the Parkman Bandstand on Boston Common, in partnership with the City of Boston and Mayor Menino.

For its 16th season of Shakespeare on the Common, CSC is proud to present the comedy All’s Well That Ends Well—Shakespeare’s globe-trotting adventure story of how far one woman will go to win the heart of her beloved.

Helena loves Bertram, but marriage is the last thing on Bertram’s mind. With boundless wit and tenacity, Helena pursues Bertram from Paris to Florence and through a maze of obstacles thrown at her by chance, circumstance, and her fiancé’s recalcitrance, finally emerging victorious.

The program, which has become a beloved civic institution, will draw an estimated 75,000 people over 16 performances.
