Item Description

Bid on two of the most coveted tickets in New York this summer: a pair of seats to The Public Theater's 50th Anniversary Season of Shakespeare in the Park.  With these passes you'll get access to this summer tradition celebrating 50 years and featuring some of the finest productions of Shakespeare to be found. While the rest wait in line, you and a guest will enjoy a leisurely pre-show dinner at Bistro Citron.

You'll enjoy dinner for two at Bistro Citron, bringing a warm touch of Gallic charm and superb French food to Manhattan's Upper West Side. Its ambience and décor are reminders of the smoky bistros celebrated in French film noir. Enter the dining room and be transported to the Parisian Left Bank featuring an authentic and pleasing menu to delight your palate. The intimate atmosphere of this unparalleled French restaurant combines a quiet elegance with a welcoming, unpretentious spirit.

Dine on authentic classics served in the finest French restaurants as well as simple country comfort food- Moules Provencales, Salad Nicoise, Soupe a l'Oignon, Steak Frites, Coq au Vin, Boeuf Bourguignon, Crème Brulee and Tart au Citron. Our staff will provide impeccable service and are knowledgeable in every aspect of our food and wine selections.

This year your passes will get you two seats to:

AS YOU LIKE IT

In As You Like It, Rosalind, Shakespeare's most breathtaking heroine, and her boyfriend Orlando find themselves in the enchanted Forest of Arden, where all the world's a stage, and where sudden infatuation is as confusing as it is beautiful.  Along with other "country copulatives," they discover that nothing transforms, redeems, or enriches experience quite as powerfully as love. As You Like It has everything we adore about Shakespearean comedy: mistaken identity, cross-dressing, madness, mayhem, rage, lust, laughter, and of course plenty of romance, both heartbreaking and joyous.
