A Midsummer Night’s Dream, by William Shakespeare
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind. – Helena
Midsummer embraces multiple worlds, mythical celebrities, magical creatures, domineering parents, young lovers, and working-class Athenians attempting to perform a tragic love story. Shakespeare’s most popular and most often performed comedy around the world, this play has something for everyone! Shakespeare & Company strives for heart-rousing, soul-stirring, and crowd-pleasing dramatic experiences. This 90-minute production is lively and fast-paced with an emphasis on language, pleasure in playing, and the welcoming relationship between the actors and the audience.
