About the Show

A Midsummer Night’s Dream

By William Shakespeare

What fools these mortals be! Join Puck and his feisty fairy band for a Saturday at the Athens summer music festival in Shakespeare’s dreamiest romantic comedy. Hermia is engaged to Demetrius but loves Lysander. Lysander loves her back, until a spell casts his gaze upon her best friend, Helena, who—would you believe it?–loves Demetrius. This quartet of lovesick young people is joined by a motley crew of theatricals, a fairy king and queen in an epic showdown, and a talking donkey to boot. Delight in the exhilaration and hilarity of young love as the chaos of magic and enchantment turns the world upside down in this immersive AV interpretation.
