AEB’s first Free Show in the Park for 2015 features the unbounded spirit of Falstaff. He is rogue..and philosopher, lover...and soldier, comic...and curmudgeon.
Can he be bound in a single actor or in the same old gender? No, He must be She’d! AEB proudly presents 6 women playing Falstaff! Join the raucous fun with The Villainous Company beginning on June 20th running through July 5th!
Actors Ensemble will present FREE in Berkeley's fantastic John Hinkel Park Amphitheatre FALSTAFF! adapted and directed by Robert Estes from Shakespeare's Henry IV parts 1 and 2. Performances are at 4 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays June 20th – July 5th, plus a special performance at 4 p.m. on Friday, July 3rd – watch a play before the fireworks begin!
The amphitheatre seats over 200 people, but we will reserve the first few rows as a courtesy especially to those with limited mobility - call 510-649-5999 to make a reservation. The amphitheatre is wheelchair accessible - access is best from Somerset Pl, take Southhampton from Arlington and continue straight onto Somerset Pl. (Google Maps will send you to the top of park, quite a hike down). There is limited parking at the end of Somerset Pl. - we will make a special effort to save some spots for those with limited mobility - please arrive early.
