Dear Neighbor,
This Sunday, come out to Klondike Park at 2 p.m. for a FREE 90-minute edition of William Shakespeare's Macbeth!
Thanks to the work of the talented folks at Kentucky Shakespeare (they produce Shakespeare in Central Park each year), we have the opportunity to benefit from the travelling edition of one of the greatest plays right in our neighborhood.
In case of inclement weather, the show will go on at the same time at the nearby Marine Corps Building/Buechel Women's Club, 3758 Pulliam Dr. 40218.
See you there!
Brent T. Ackerson 26th District Councilman
