Time Out says

The name says it all, really—this is a rock, up high, in Central Park. Rumor has it that the Seneca and other local Native Americans once used it as a gathering spot, a tradition that has continued to the present, thanks to the various outdoor performance groups (like Gorilla Repertory Theater and Shakespeare Gone Wild!) that use it as a focal point for their alfresco productions.

What’s on

Unrehearsed!

Barefoot Shakespeare Company invites you to kick off your shoes and watch a pair of Shakespeare comedies performed by actors who have just a month to learn their parts and are structly forbidden from rehearsing with each other beforehand in any way. The company nicknames it "Shakespeare for Sports Fans," and errors are part of the fun; a referee calls foul for missed lines and cues, and the audience is invited to bet on who will perform the best. The Comedy of Errors bats first on May 31, followed by A Midsummer Night's Dream on July 7. Both performances are free at Central Park's Summit Rock.
