Palm Beach Shakespeare Festival

09/01/2026

TEACHERS! We are excited to share our first event of the season! The Palm Beach Shakespeare Festival is proudly presenting MACBETH for the Kravis Center's S*T*A*R (Students & Teachers Arts Resources) Series on October 26 - 28.

These performances provide students exposure to live theatre, spark classroom discussion, enhance classroom studies and stimulate the curiosity of young minds. An Admission Waiver Program – Sponsored by Irene and Jim Karp – assures that no student will be denied admission due to economic need.

There are still open slots, but they are going fast. Just visit
https://www.kravis.org/star-series-performances/ and choose your program and date.
