The New York Shakespeare Festival, now called The Public Theater, calls its performances of Shakespeare in Central Park, "Shakespeare in the Park" although that name is used for outdoor Shakespeare productions around the world. NYSF put on Othello in 1964 with James Earl Jones in the title role. It would appear that Joseph Papp (the push behind the company) was the director, although the references are not clear.

The New York Shakespeare Festival was started by Joseph Papp in 1954. At first they performed in a church basement. They then started touring the city and the outer boroughs, performing on the back of a flatbed truck. In 1957 one of the places the truck stopped was in Central Park. The manager of the park objected that theatregoers were trampling the grass, and in 1959 sued Papp. Papp succeeded, however, and as a result the Delacorte theatre was built for the Festival to perform at. The first performance at this theatre, which is still the home of Shakespeare in the Park, was in 1962.
