The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged)

  written by Adam Long, Daniel Singer & Jess Winfield 

This season you have the opportunity to see all of Shakespeare's plays in one night; we will perform the hilariously entertaining Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) under the direction of our Artistic Producer, Charles Fee.

Three ambitious actors, clad in classic Converse tennis shoes and armed with an outrageous assortment of outerwear and props, cram the Bard's entire canon of plays (and sonnets!) into two hours of sheer Elizabethan-esque ecstasy.  Need we say more?  Buckle your seatbelts.  It's going to be a bumpy ride. One of London's longest running comedies, this endearingly irreverent and lightning-paced romp through the greatest plays of all time will have you rolling with laughter and jumping in the aisles.  Perhaps The Today Show captured its spirit best when they said, "If you like Shakespeare, you'll like this show.  If you hate Shakespeare, you'll love this show!"


"Even if you are not a fan of even one of the Bard's plays you still want to attend this year's production of The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged)...I was hysterical throughout the performance." - Jean Eick, North Lake Tahoe Bonanza

Some audience members may find some material unsuitable for young children. Shakespearean comedy can be rather bawdy at times. 

Sand Harbor Music Series

Live music set against the magnificent Lake Tahoe backdrop at Sand Harbor is a winning combination, so this year we welcoming back our Music Series. This series was created because we wanted to provide a completely different type of entertainment experience at our beautiful lakeside amphitheatre at Sand Harbor State Park. Get ready to dance in the aisles every Monday and FRIDAY night to everything from the Reno Philharmonic, blues, jazz, Latin rhythm, classic 70's rock, and Soulchestra, beginning on July 12.

Hot Dogs and Haute Cuisine - August 19

Special Chautauqua performance featuring Babe Ruth and Julia Child

In the likeness of Babe Ruth and Julia Child, Gene and Karen Vuranch will bring to life the stories surrounding the "Sultan of Swat" and "The First Lady of Food".  

Before there was Rachael, Emeril or Paula, a tall, gangly woman with a preposterous voice and joy of life revolutionized the art of cooking for Americans. In the 1960's, it was Julia Child who brought her love of French cooking to the American public. She became an icon of gourmet cooking and, using her remarkable energy and humor, changed the way American thought about eating and food, convincing a nation that anyone could create gourmet meals.

Babe Ruth is perhaps the greatest sports hero in American history. But, the "Sultan of Swat" or "The Bambino," as he came to be known, was more than a ballplayer, he was a public figure whose popularity transcended that of any game. On the baseball diamond, he set a roster of records capped by his 60-home run season. 

Show Starts 6:30 p.m., Doors Open at 5:30 p.m.
