Written by William Shakespeare

Directed by Risa Brainin

A rapturous, fresh take on one of William Shakespeare’s most popular and widely performed plays, The Acting Company’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream is a captivating, coming-of-age story that will surprise and delight! In this fast-paced, crowd-pleasing comedy, a pair of young lovers flee to an enchanted forest where a troupe of amateur actors rehearse a play. With the help of a mystical flower, the fairy king and queen’s mischievous servant Puck creates chaos for these unsuspecting humans, leading to mistaken identities, romantic entanglements, and comical transformations. Bursting with mirth, music, magic, and mayhem, this uplifting tale of illusion and love comes to life with an electric cast of New York-based artists.

“Now more than ever, The Acting Company wants to lift hearts, spirits, and minds - delighting and engaging audiences all over the country. We can think of no better way to achieve this goal than with these two plays that revel in the absurd improbabilities of finding and sustaining love in a world both magical and cruel. These are stories that center Hope: kindness in the face of adversity and love defiant of all obstacles. Both GREAT EXPECTATIONS and A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM are the Acting Company at its best!”

Kent Gash, Artistic Director, The Acting Company
