Exciting 2025 Montana Shakespeare in the Parks Schedule
Montana Shakespeare in the Parks has released their 2025 schedule, and it's absolutely packed with the beauty and art that is live theater across the entire state of Montana.
It's hard to measure the impact that Montana Shakespeare in the Parks has had over 53 years of performances. Free, live theater for all of Montana. Festival performances. Educational presentations in schools. Discussions of literature in book stores.
"In addition to the free summer tour, MSIP also provides robust educational programs through our Shakespeare in the Schools and Montana Shakes! programs, bringing interactive plays and workshops to thousands of students across MT and WY."
During the 2025 season, THREE western states will be able to enjoy Montana Shakespeare in the Parks as they feature two plays: 'Henry V' and 'As You Like It'.
This season kicks off in Bozeman at the MSU Duck Pond on June 11th. MSIP visits some of Montana's smallest towns throughout the year, such as: Sidney, Wolf Point, Malta, Utica, and many more.
