Foolish Mortals presents A Midsummer Night’s Dream, by William Shakespeare, directed by Blake Bradford.
Featuring an all-female cast, Foolish Mortals’ production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream follows four young lovers as they flee the city of Athens to find freedom and love in the forest. There they discover a place of enchantment, inhabited by fairies and their warring masters, Titania and Oberon. A group of local artisans rehearsing a play also look to the forest for privacy, but everyone’s plans are disrupted by the impish prankster Puck. One of Shakespeare’s most beloved comedies, A Midsummer Night’s Dream evokes a world of rebellion, magic and romance, where chaos erupts, lovers are mismatched, and all is reconciled through the wonder and power of love.
