SHELTON - The Valley Shakespeare Festival kicked off its inaugural season with its production of "The Comedy of Errors" at Veterans' Memorial Park last week.
The three performances were both well-received and well-attended by more than 400 guests who braved the heat and the threat of severe thunderstorms to make their way to the park to enjoy the first ever free outdoor Shakespeare production in the Valley's history.
These courageous and dedicated souls were rewarded with three beautiful nights of comic theater under the moon and stars served up as only the Bard of Avon can do. "Our revels now are ended...", but only for a time!
