CENTRAL PARK — This year’s Shakespeare in the Park program is set to begin June 9th and includes two free plays.

The production, running through August 1st, features both "The Merchant of Venice" and "The Winter’s Tale" on rotating nights.

Tickets for the show can be picked up daily at the Delacorte Theater in the middle of Central Park at 80th street. Get there early — the lines are notoriously long.

A limited number of tickets will also be available online the day of the show.
