The Colorado Shakespeare Gardens (CSG) invites all who love Shakespeare’s work to extend their experience from the sight and sounds of the stage to the scent and sweet beauty of his gardens.
Spend some time before taking your seat in the Mary Rippon Theatre (Outdoor) or Roe Green Theatre (Indoors) and visit the courtyard between Hellems and the Lucille Berkeley Buchanan Building to enjoy play-by-play plantings, a knot garden inspired by traditional Elizabethan designs, the moonlight Midsummer Night’s Dream garden, and more. The Kitchen Garden, largely inspired by The Merry Wives of Windsor, can be found this year at the north end of the courtyard in the Highlight Garden area next to the plum tree. A passionately committed team of volunteers cultivates and tends these gardens dedicated to the plants that Shakespeare knew and memorably referenced in his plays.
