A Midsummer Night's Dream Announcing Additional (but Final!) Performances on August 19 - 21!
The concept for A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM is inspired by our gorgeous setting on the shore of the lake. The fairies will be powerful spirits of the earth, air, and water, who create a magical world where the young lovers leave their everyday lives behind and rediscover themselves and each other. This is a well-known and much loved play because it’s hilariously funny—this is the one where Puck puts a donkey’s head on Bottom the weaver, and Titania the Fairy Queen falls madly in love with him. Directed by Michael Walling, from London, who has directed for the English National Opera, and also has his own company, Border Crossings, that does cross cultural original shows; they recently opened a show with the National Theatre of Ghana and have been touring it in England. The movement work will be choreographed by Soozi Childers. Soozi's experience includes choreography for the Cirque du Soleil show, Mystère and Celine Dion’s, A New Day in Las Vegas, Nevada. A Midsummer Night's Dream is directed by Michael Walling, Guest Director. (Rated PG) View all performances |
