The City of Atlantic Beach and Apex Theatre Studio brings you Shakespeare in the Park FREE under the stars in Johansen Park (1300 Seminole Road Atlantic Beach) April 1st and 2nd. The show will begin at 7 pm each night.
The story follows fairy-tale favorites, including a Baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King’s Festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a Witch’s curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse. Everyone’s wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them with disastrous results.
The cast is comprised of students and professional teaching artists from Apex Theatre Studio under the direction of Atlanta-based director Justin Anderson. It features a memorable score which includes Giants In The Sky, I Know Things Now, and Children Will Listen.
Audience members are encouraged to bring their own folding chairs and blankets, however, some chairs will be available. There will be food trucks set up both nights. More information on food trucks to follow.

The best little art walk in town, for 14+ years, established in 2007.In loving memory of our founding members:
Alice M. Gartland
January 27, 1922 – May 6, 2021
Linda H. Stewart
October 28, 1957 -August 15, 2021
The North Beaches Art Walk got its start in 2007 when Beaches art-industry professionals JoAnne Adams, Alice Gartland and Linda Stewart came together in hopes of recreating the popular art walk atmosphere of Downtown.
Through their nurturing and dedication, the event grew considerably. And on every third Thursday of the month, the streets of the Beaches Town Center erupt with creativity. What was once a small pool of carefully selected artists has now become a bubbling ocean of art, a place where woodworkers commingle with mixed media designers and musicians play into the night. Welcoming to locals and out-of-towners alike, to say it’s a communal experience.
