JUPITER, Fla. — For the 33rd year in a row, audiences can experience Shakespeare by the Sea at Jupiter's Carlin Park.

This year's production of "Measure for Measure," which is originally set in Venice by Shakespeare, is set in New Orleans at Mardi Gras because of the city's similar traits of the sacred juxtaposed against the secular.

The family-friendly event is inviting the public to bring chairs, blankets, and booze. The Jupiter location will have Mr. Shrimps Cajun Kitchen Food Truck, while in Royal Palm Beach, the park sells concessions.

A $5 donation per person is requested, but not required. Pets on leashes are welcome.
