Posted by What better way to wind down the summer than with a free performance of a Shakespearean classic set against the beautiful backdrop of an ocean view?
An August 16 performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, presented by Shakespeare By The Sea, will take place at 8pm at Point Fermin Park in San Pedro. This will be the summer grand finale (last show of the season), so if you miss this one, might have to wait till next year.

We’d like to invite any and all members of the We Like L.A. community to come by, hang out with us, and enjoy the show [You can RSVP by going to our Facebook Events Page].
We’ll be chilling out at the park before hand around (5:30pm or so), eating snacks and enjoying the summer weather before locking down our seats by the stage before the show.
As we mentioned, the performance is free (though you may donate to the cause if you feel like it), and there is no advanced reservation of seating so you’ll need to get there early if you want secure a good spot.
All the relevant details are below, and we’ll be sure to serve up another reminder via our email list just in case you guys forget.
Hope to see you there!

Things You Should Know

– Picnics are encouraged, so feel free to bring food, snacks, and beverages.
– If you want to get there even earlier, you may opt to go explore the nearby Sunken City or hike up the hill to the Korean Friendship Bell at Angels Gate Park.
– The performance starts at 8pm and is slated to take approximately 2 hours, with one 10-15 minute break. For more information of
