A Midsummer Night's Dream
By William Shakespeare
Directed by Fred C. Adams
June 23 to September 3, 2011
in the Adams Shakespearean Theatre
This luxurious tale of fairies, dreams, and
moonlight is Shakespeare’s most popular comedy. “The course of true love never did run smooth,” but when the feuding king and queen of the fairies interfere in the couplings of mortals, the result is bedlam, from the roguish Puck to the rustic would-be actors, from the impish fairies to the young lovers.
