Launching its Fourth Annual Summer Shakespeare Season, Shakespeare Santa Monica is set to launch performances at Reed Memorial Park. Weekend shows are expected to “pack a tennis court with delighted audiences,” said John Farmanesh-Bocca, artistic director.

The plays will start Friday, July 13 and continue through the 29th. “Richard III” plays Fridays and Sundays at 7:30 p.m. and Saturdays at 3 p.m. An all-female version of “The Taming of the Shrew” plays Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 3 p.m. Both will be performed at Miles Memorial Playhouse (1130 Lincoln Blvd.). “Twelfth Night” plays Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays at 7:30 p.m., outdoors at Reed Park’s Tournament Tennis Court #1.

Admission is free for anyone 18 and under. Tickets range from $20 to $25, with discounts for students and senior citizens. For more information and to purchase tickets, call (310) 270-3454.
