Mid-Peninsula Shakespeare
The Mid-Peninsula Shakespeare Festival is on the move!
Due to major maintenance of the Hetch Hetchy Water Pipeline, our usual venue at Mid-Pen High School is not available this summer, but fear not! The wonderful people of Full Circle Farm, and the City of Sunnyvale, have generously agreed to host this year’s festival!
Three plays, four weekends, all free! Other than the location, The Mid-Peninsula Shakespeare Festival will continue the same tradition of popular, high quality, classical theatre presented free of charge.
Full Circle Farm is located at 1055 Dunford Way in Sunnyvale. Just a few blocks east of Wolfe Rd., near El Camino Real. As a project of the nonprofit Sustainable Community Gardens, Full Circle Farm is an 11-acre sustainable, educational farm that puts fresh food in Santa Clara Unified School District cafeterias. www.fullcirclesunnyvale.org
