Maynardville offers its patrons both a beautiful park and lake for pre-show picnics and drinks, as well as a unique wooded 700-seater theatre setting that is simply breathtaking.
The park boasts spectacular flora and there’s even a playground to keep the little ones entertained. The park opens at 7am and closes at 7pm in summer. For those who don’t want to pack treats, there are always light refreshments on sale around the stage.
The establishment of the annual Shakespeare-in-the-Park was the brainchild of two talented actresses Cecelia Sonnenberg and Rene Ahrenson in the mid 1950's, and has delighted audiences for 62 years. From 2018 it has expanded into a full classical experience called the Maynardville Open-Air Festival. Showcasing a season of symphony, Shakespeare, ballet, comedy and more, the Festival weaves elements of Shakespeare into a selection of shows from January – March.
Presented by the Maynardville Theatre Trust and Liquid Match Productions, with support from the Artscape Theatre Centre, the Festival is a not-to-missed experience for arts lovers and those who are simply looking for a magical moment beneath the stars.
