A Duke and a Queen to be married; lovers spelled and lost in the woods; the King and Queen of the Fairies move against each other in a festive rivalry with a comic troupe of mechanicals caught in their web. What could be better than Shakespeare鈥檚 most loved romp? Set on the beach 鈥� the scene is updated but Shakespeare鈥檚 beautiful language is intact. Come and have fun with us in A Midsummer Night鈥檚 Dream!
