Kate Mueth and the Neo-Political Cowgirls (NPC) in partnership with the Village of East Hampton and the East Hampton Chamber of Commerce, will present “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare, Abridged” by Daniel Singer, Jess Winfield and Adam Long from July 15 to July 25. Shows will be offered at 7 p.m. Thursdays through Sundays, outdoors in Herrick Park on Newtown Lane.

Starring LaWanda Hopkins, Trevor Vaughn and John Kroft and directed by Kate Mueth, this production is appropriate for families with children ages 8 and up. Bring a blanket, a picnic or a low slung beach chair and get ready for ridiculous fun out under the stars. This rollicking comedy is just the salve needed as residents re-emerge into the community and launch the first ever Shakespeare In The Park in East Hampton.

Tickets are free via an advance $5 reservation per person to save a seat. Show up on the night of the show, and NPC will return the $5 in cash. VIP pods are available (reserved special seating and a swag bag full of local business merchant’s swag and coupons) for up to four people for $150.

For tickets, visit musae.me/npc/experiences/1105/the-complete or npcowgirls.org.
