11. See Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival

Make a day of it. Garrison, through September 18.

This season is a big one: The beloved upriver destination has found a new, picturesque, permanent home where it can pitch its (gigantic, structural) tent. As ever in its repertory schedule, there’s a mix of old work and new, including a Romeo and

Juliet starring the actual couple Kurt Rhoads and Nance Williamson; a revival of Anne Washburn’s all too relevant

directed by the festival’s artistic director, Davis McCallum; and the Mohegan playwright Madeline Sayet’s Where We Belong, a new solo piece about the colonial intertwining between her roots and Shakespeare’s.
