An English-language production of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” with Czech subtitles directed by Hammed Animashaun and PSC Artistic Director Guy Roberts.
Set in a magical wood filled with fantastical fairies, sprites and legendary creatures, with original music by Patrick Neil Doyle, this production features a new version of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, translated into contemporary modern English by Tony Award–winning and Oscar-nominated storyteller Jeffrey Whitty. The presented Midsummer cuts through the centuries to bring audiences a fresh, moment-by-moment take, designed to flow as effortlessly for contemporary audiences as Shakespeare’s beloved classic played to the Elizabethans.
