Much Ado About Nothing, Hudson Valley Shakespeare, Boscobel: Scandal abounds in Shakespeare’s hilarious, biting comedy about lies, courtship, and the chaos created in pursuit of true love. The famous bantering lovers, Benedick and Beatrice, trade barbs while matching wits (and hearts) in this celebrated romantic romp.
Set on the grounds of Boscobel in Garrison, NY, the 250-acre river front estate of Peter and Elizabeth Dyckman, HVSF is more than a snooty day trip for name-dropping sophistos. It’s high on What To Do’s bucket list for culture-vultures, sightseers, chill-outs and party people looking for a scenic spot to kick back in some soccer chairs, uncork a cool Sauvignon Blanc and have a picnic. Did we leave anyone out?
Here’s where we drop some names
The New York Times recently named HVSF one of America’s 50 Essential Summer Festivals. The list includes Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, the Newport Jazz Festival, Lincoln Center’s Mostly Mozart, Charleston’s Spoleto Festival, California’s Ojai Festival, Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival in Beckett, MA and the Grand Teton Music Festival set at the foot of the Grand Tetons – to name a few.
