Throughout The Grand Opera House
6pm to 7pm
Prior to The Grand’s presentation of MacHomer on May 20, Delaware Shakespeare Festival will fill the lobby of The Grand with Shakespearean and Renaissance fun and entertainment. There will be music and Shakespeare performances from area high school students, a sneak peek of DSF’s 10th Anniversary production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, children’s activities, and a special guest appearance by Queen Elizabeth herself (the first one, of course).
DSF encourages one and all to come in Shakespearean costume. The best-dressed guest will win tickets to The Grand and DSF. (Click here for more information about the Costume Competition.)
The grand finale of The Bard’s Lobby Faire will be the “Lay on, Macduff!” Contest. Entrants will compete to give the most crazed version of Macbeth’s final line (“Lay on, Macduff, and damn’d be him who first cries, Hold, enough.”). The winner of this competition will also take home tickets to The Grand and DSF. (Click here for more information about the “Lay on, Macduff” Contest.)
A ticket package for MacHomer and the DSF 10th Anniversary Dessert Reception is available for $40 (mention code “DSF10”). Call 302-652-5577 or 800-37-GRAND. See the DSF 10th Anniversary post for more information.
Come for an entire evening of fun!
