ABOUT THE SHOW

Delve – if you dare – into a forbidden forest on the outskirts of Athens

Can you escape your father’s tyrannical command? 

Will you find your secret lover? 

Could you finally land the leading role? 

Or might you discover something… darker?

Join the Bard’s most colorful cast of characters as they flit, frolic, and stumble their way through the trees, aided by moonlight and magic. 

Elliot Norton Award-winning director Maurice Emmanuel Parent’s invigorating new take on "A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM" will explore the beauty and romance, but also the sinister underbelly, of one of Shakespeare’s most celebrated classics.

Whether you seek to guffaw at the mechanicals, tangle with the love quadrangle, or conjure in the fairy court – this production will enchant long-time Shakespeare lovers and newcomers alike.

MISSON

ACTORS' SHAKESPEARE PROJECT believes Shakespeare’s words are urgently relevant to our times. Working as an ensemble of resident company members, ASP brings these words into the voices, bodies, and imaginations of actors, audiences, and neighborhoods. ASP does this through creative projects, including intimate productions and outreach programs that are informed by the spaces in which they happen. These projects inspire civic dialogue, build relationships between people, strengthen communities, and reveal something about what it means to be human here and now.
