The Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival

The Lake Tahoe Shakespeare festival is in full swing this summer on the pristine shores of Lake Tahoe at Sand Harbor. Bringing world class artists and entertainment to Lake Tahoe each summer, the experience is truly one of a kind. This year, the featured performances are Macbeth, Beehive and the Showcase Series. The setting for the performances is unparalleled enjoying views of Lake Tahoe, seating on the sand and table service or order-ahead dining for the show. There is not a bad seat in the house.

Macbeth needs no introduction as one of Shakespeare’s most well-known tragedies. What is unique to this performance is that the seating at the venue will be re-arranged  to mimic an Elizabethan theatre so that there are on-stage seating options. The result will be a very intimate and immersive experience for the audience.

Beehive: The 60’s Musical is an off Broadway performance that celebrates the groovy women musicians who made the 60’s memorable. Songs will be performed honoring artists such as the Supremes, Janis Joplin and Aretha Franklin.

The Showcase Series features many different performances ranging from the Reno Philharmonic Orchestra, The Sierra Nevada Ballet, Jazz performances, famous acts such as Super Diamond and more.

The Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival is an enchanting experience that is not to be missed. For more information click here.
