2024-2025 Production Season

A Midsummer Night’s Dream

By William Shakespeare; Directed by Lewis Magruder
April 30-May 3, 2025, at 7:30 p.m.
May 4, 2025, at 2 p.m.

Four young lovers escape to the woods to pursue their dreams of love far away from parental disapproval. What they encounter there is anything but the blissful freedom they seek, for the powerful fairy king is in a lovers' spat with his equally powerful fairy queen. To further complicate matters, a group of (very) amateur actors have chosen these same woods in which to rehearse a play. How one of them ends up with an ass's head is a plot device only Shakespeare could dream up in this, perhaps his most beloved comedy.
