A Midsummer Night’s Dream
About the Show
In a place of enchantment inhabited by lovers both fairy and human, three worlds collide: the unrequited loves of Demetrius, Lysander, Hermia and Helena; a rehearsal of the Pyramus and Thisbe legend by a group of Rustics; and the domestic troubles in the land of the fairies. Shakespeare’s powerful language evokes a brilliant world of wonder, magic and romance, where confusions are resolved by and all is reconciled through midsummer night revelries and faith in the power of nature.
The ShakespeareTheatre remounts its 2003 production directed by Jef Hall-Flavin based on the original direction by Mark Lamos.
