The Public Theater, the nonprofit organization that presents the annual Shakespeare festival, announced Tuesday that, instead of its usual large-scale productions at Central Park's Delacorte Theater, this year it would send a smaller production of The Comedy of Errors to parks and plazas around the city between Memorial Day and the end of June, followed by outdoor screenings of a filmed production of Much Ado About Nothing in July, August and early September.
It's not a replacement for the Delacorte it's not intended to be a replacement but my hope is that it will be successful enough as an experiment that this expanded version of what the mobile unit does can keep going indefinitely, Oskar Eustis, the artistic director of the Public, said in an interview.
