www.MidsummerTbay.ca
What better way to usher in the summer than to allow Redwood Park Performing Arts to present to you the timeless tale of A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Filled with love, laughter, action and suspence. This fresh, modern retelling of this classic is sure to delight all who choose to enter the “dream”.
“A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” William Shakespeare’s most popular comedy, was written around 1594 or 95. It portrays the adventures of four young lovers and a group of amateur actors, their interactions with woodland fairies and a duke and duchess. Taking place in a mythical Athens and an enchanted forest, there is a handsome fairy king, a misguided parent, star-crossed lovers, a weaver who’s transformed into a half-donkey, wood sprites and elves. This work is widely performed around the world, and no wonder – it’s about the world’s most popular pastime, falling in love. But as many of us discover, falling in love can make fools of us all.
