Sidney’s Shakespeare by the Sea
 September 4 – 7, 2014

Bard on Beacon1-hr

Shakespeare returns to Sidney, with performances of Macbeth and Comedy of Errors alternating Thursday through Sunday, in Beacon Park,for six performances between Sept. 4 and 7. 

On the lawns in Beacon Park, audiences will enjoy the second season of Sidney’s Shakespeare by the Sea as two outstanding plays come to life on the Pavilion stage.

Pavilion audienceWhile Robert Light’s Macbeth will be presented in traditional garb, director Geoff Davidson has re-set Comedy of Errors in the late 20th century.
Light said he chose to present the works together because of their common theme.

“They’re both about families,” he said.

“Macbeth is a toxic family — a couple with a child who died that destroys other families. And Comedy of Errors is about a family working to reunite itself.”

Paviion stageWith the ocean to one side, a bright sky above and culture in front of you, the experience will be one to remember.  See Shakespeare like you’ve never seen before, updated to modern dress, while still maintaining its original language.  Witches will fly, battles will be had, and tragedy and comedy will capture your attention beneath the sky, entertained by Vancouver Island Shakespeare by the Sea performers.Witch flying
