“Seven years after the closing of Fort Worth’s 25-year-old Shakespeare in the Park, a similar event will return next summer. A new happening called the Trinity Shakespeare Festival will be run and funded by Texas Christian University, where Romeo and Juliet and Twelfth Night will be performed in repertory indoors at two of the school’s theaters. Although the festival will employ students onstage and off, it will be a professional organization, hiring a number of Equity and nonstudent actors, as well as professional directors and designers.” Source: Star-Telegram.com
