A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM by William Shakespeare

All Ages Collaboration

March 23rd  – April 1st 

Friday and Saturday at 7:30

Sunday at 2:00

Suggested $12, pay-what-you-want


Shakespeare wrote A Midsummer Night’s Dream toward the beginning of his career. The play describes the comic misadventures of two pairs of lovers who become lost in a dark wood and fall under the power of sprites.

To Shakespeare’s audiences, the play’s title was a clue that the play might be about romance, magic, and madness. Midsummer Night was thought to be one of the nights of the year when sprites were especially powerful. People also believed that flowers gathered on Midsummer Night could work magic and that Midsummer Night was a time when people dreamed of their true loves and sometimes went insane.

 "Boggis and Bunce and Bean/One fat, one short, one lean/These horrible crooks/So different in looks/Were nonetheless equally mean."
