SUMMARY
A Midsummer Night’s Dream is an unforgettable tale of
love, magic, and mischief set in the mystical forest outside
of Athens. When the forest becomes a hideout for four
hopeful youths and a group of amateur performers, the
fairies cast spells that mix up everyone’s affections with
hilarious and delightful results. This new adaptation
is designed to introduce young people to the joys of
Shakespeare and his language. Recommended for ages 8 and up.
