A darkly comic exploration of Shakespeare’s "A Midsummer Night’s Dream." Four young adults on the verge of growing up lose themselves for a night in a world of love, lust and fairies. They manipulate each other and get manipulated. They fall in and out of love. They have the most ridiculous night ever, and they can’t remember a thing in the morning. "Midsummer" uses Shakespeare’s language to tell a hysterically true story about anyone and everyone. Tickets are free, and reservations are recommended. Call the Box Office at 413-542-2277.
