Backyard Bard: Sundays are Double Feature Days!
Backyard Bard presents two stripped-down productions of Shakespeare’s plays, each one hour long, and both performed by a small ensemble of versatile actors.
Backyard Bard was born out of a desire to bring Shakespeare to smaller parks and new audiences in underserved neighborhoods. But we don’t just perform in the parks – Backyard Bard is also available for private parties. If you are interested in hosting a performance, contact us at greenstage@greenstage.org.

Unbeknownst to them two sets of twins get separated at birth. When they all find themselves in the same city more than 20 years later zany chaos ensues of mistaken identity, misunderstandings, mayhem, and mixups. A fan favorite, the Comedy of Errors remains one of Shakespeare’s funniest comedies.
