[NEohioPAL] Cleveland Shakespeare Festival opens THE MERCHANT OF VENICE Friday July 17

Wed Jul 15 20:45:56 PDT 2015

The Cleveland Shakespeare Festival
presents
THE MERCHANT OF VENICE
A free, outdoor production
July 17 - Aug 2

Filled with contrasts and controversy, containing comic elements mixed with
trenchant comment on the nature of intolerance, justice and forgiveness,
this is a play not easily categorized.  The merchant Antonio is approached
for a loan by his dear friend Bassanio so that he may woo an heiress in
another city.  Antonio, cash-poor until his ships return from their trade
route, in turn borrows from the moneylender Shylock, who sees in this
arrangement the possibility to exact a gruesome revenge for the years of
injustice he’s suffered at the hands of Antonio and the rest of the city.

*All performances are at 7pm and are presented FREE OF CHARGE.*  Please
bring your own chairs or blankets.  In case of inclement weather, check our
