The performances are free and open to the public. 

This fast-paced show has something for everyone - a hilarious Punch and Judy puppet show, a sassy leading lady, and a handsome nobleman who works to win her affection.

Abrakadoodle Art Education and Parties will offer free, preshow children's activities, 7 p.m. – 8 p.m. In the event of rain the show will be performed in Emerald Coast Theatre Company's space at 560 Grand Boulevard, Upstairs.

 “Emerald Coast Theatre Company is honored to return for a third summer to Theatre Thursdays at Grand Boulevard,” said Nathanael Fisher, Co-Founder and Producing Artistic Director of the Theater now located at Grand Boulevard. “This adaptation of ‘The Taming of the Shrew’ is a hilarious way to spend a summer evening with your family. The physical comedy and comedia' style appeals to all ages and there is just something special about watching Shakespeare under the stars.”

Another summer blockbuster will be presented in June with “Ballet at Twilight” as Northwest Florida Ballet presents an evening of classical ballet and contemporary dance featuring international guest artists in Grand Park, June 24, 7:30 p.m. This event is also free and open to the public.
