What could be better than gathering in a park not meant to be a theatre, and being swept away into a world of storytelling? SBTS has served as a vibrant cultural cornerstone in Southern California for more than a quarter of a century, becoming a catalyst for community engagement and cultural connection. Access to these events without the barrier of an admission fee ensures that everyone can experience stories that transcend age, background and status. The value of these programs extends well beyond the boundaries of each park. Return by: Mail: SHAKESPEARE BY THE SEA 514 N.
