Toowoomba’s Theatre Under The Stars At USQ This Weekend

The USQ Shakespeare in the Park Festival season of  “The Winter’s Tale” opens tonight on the USQ Toowoomba front lawn.

Enjoy a stylish interpretation of Shakespeare’s sweeping tale of jealousy, regret and redemption in the great outdoors.

Directed by David Burton, Kate Murphy and Emily Burton and featuring a cast of emerging actors from the University’s Bachelor of Creative Arts, this exciting adaptation draws on the style and glamour of a 1950s Mad Men world, recreated by Set Designer Josh McIntosh and Costume Designer, Carolyn Taylor-Smith.

Gather a group of friends, pack a picnic, bring a chair or blanket and settle in for the thrill of live theatre under the stars at the tenth annual Shakespeare in the Park Festival.

BYO or purchase food and drinks from the on-site Shakespeare Scullery.
