Shakespeare in the Parks: A Midsummer Night's Dream
Wednesday, July 3, 7:30 PM, FREE,
Appropriate for all ages
Directed by newly appointed Artistic Director Randy Snight, this 90-minute production of A Midsummer Night's Dream is a delightful comedy weaving together the stories of four young lovers, amateur actresses, and mischievous fairies. Set in an enchanted forest near the fictional town of Athens, MD, the play explores themes of love, illusion, and the unpredictable nature of desire. Bring your lawn chair, a picnic, and enjoy the Bard under the stars.
