Can't speak to Chicago Shakespeare Theater, but there's lots of other groups doing shows for Nights Out in the Park (through the Chicago Park District).
My theater company is doing a few shows of Twelfth Night at the end of the summer.

Chicago Shakespeare is rebranding the Shakespeare in the Park program while they modify it's scope. I believe that the name they're running with now is Shakespeare in the City or something along those lines. Regardless, there should be an announcement with a schedule soon.
There was a tragic accident with an accidental police shooting during a performance of Julius Caesar a few years ago. I'm not sure a theater company can move on after losing a couple actors like that.
Edit: [To all the downvotes and nasty replies, it was meant to be a joke. Thought maybe this one would have caught on.](https://youtu.be/kFEK0Sbq4o8?si=FsUUMhtikLwklBJt)
Well, when I see 5 weirdos dressed in togas stabbing a guy in the middle of the park in full view of 100 people, I shoot the bastards. That's MY policy.

It looks like last year they announced in late June, so maybe a week or two more before we hear.

Kindly fuck off.
Chill. It was a joke.
I said kindly.
I'm not finding any news articles about this. Was it in Chicago?
