Shakespeare in the Park

Antagonist Productions is proud to announce the return of its annual Shakespeare in the Park, presenting Much Ado About Nothing by William Shakespeare. This year’s production, directed by Drew Davidson, will run July 10–13 and July 16–19, with Opening Night on July 10.

Since launching the event in 2021, Antagonist Productions has made Shakespeare in the Park a beloved Lexington tradition by offering high-quality theatre that is completely free to the public. Each summer, the event brings together audiences from across the community for an evening of live performance, music, and local collaboration.

Filled with witty banter, romantic confusion, and comedic mischief, Much Ado About Nothing follows the clever verbal sparring between Beatrice and Benedick as love, deception, and redemption unfold around them.

With live music, community partnerships, local vendors, and a vibrant outdoor setting, Antagonist Productions’ Shakespeare in the Park continues to grow as one of Lexington’s most exciting summer arts events—while remaining completely free for the public.
