A Midsummer Night’s Dream

On the eve of Duke Theseus’ wedding to Hippolyta, Hermia is offered death or life as a nun when she refuses to wed her father’s choice of suitor, Demetrius. Hermia and her true love Lysander flee to the woods, pursued by Demetrius and his scorned former lover; Hermia’s best friend, Helena. The fairies in the woods are conflicted by the war between their rulers Oberon and Titania, and a group of passionate but unskilled actors seek to stage a romantic play in time for Theseus’ wedding day. An abridged adaptation of William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream encounters lovers young and old, human and fairy, and follows them through an evening of trials, tribulations, misunderstandings and magical interference.

Appropriate for all ages.
