Allow your children to immerse themselves in the works of Shakespeare … in a kid-friendly kind of way. The Cincinnati Shakespeare Company hosts performances in various venues throughout the month of August — Shakespeare in the Park — everywhere from Edgewood in Northern Kentucky to Mason and West Chester. Families can enjoy a performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream or Macbeth at local parks, all for free. This is a great chance for kids to experience the masterful works of Shakespeare — which could possibly turn them on to poetry and so much more!
