A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Delve—if you dare—into a forbidden forest on the outskirts of Athens. Can you escape your father’s tyrannical command? Will you find your secret lover? Could you finally land the leading role? Or might you discover something… darker?

Join the Bard’s most colorful cast of characters as they flit, frolic, and stumble their way through the woods, aided by moonlight and magic. Inspired by the club culture of late ‘90s and early ‘00s New York City, Maurice Emmanuel Parent’s invigorating new take on this classic play flips the romantic entanglement of A Midsummer Night’s Dream on its head and brings Shakespeare’s most popular comedy into vivid technicolor.

Whether you seek to guffaw at the mechanicals, tangle with the love quadrangle, or conjure in the fairy court, this production will enchant long-time Shakespeare lovers and newcomers alike.
