A Midsummer Night’s Dream -

Written by William Shakespeare
In a modern verse translation by Jeff Whitty

A Midsummer Night’s Dream pushes theatricality to the limits, inviting the audience to abandon themselves with their eyes wide open to the “dreams” of this magical story.

The magic unfolds between real and imaginary dreams surrounded by live music, movement, and Shakespeare’s own poetic words and imagery, transporting the audience to a new and enchanted world.

This free production is directed and designed by award-winning theater artist Giulio Cesare Perrone.
