A Midsummer Night’s Dream
By William Shakespeare
Directed by Angus Thorburn
“The course of true love never did run smooth…”
Love is a simple answer and a complicated question—a force that stirs our boldest hopes and deepest fears. Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream explores love in all its contradictions: the flutter in our hearts, the pang of jealousy, and the stab of heartbreak.
This enchanting comedy whisks our characters away to a magical forest where reality blurs, and the unpredictable power of love reigns supreme. As lovers and dreamers flee societal constraints, they encounter meddling fairies, muddling spells, and mistaken identities, revealing love’s many faces—its passion, folly, and transformation.
A Midsummer Night’s Dream reminds us that while love can be messy and confusing, it is the very essence of being human.
