A Midsummer Night's Dream

Placeholder
Don’t miss out on New Canaan High School Theatre Department’s hilarious production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream! Set with a Steampunk twist and a royal wedding on the horizon, watch as the mischievous fairy, Puck creates chaos between lovers in the forest with her magic. While the King and Queen of the fairies feud, a group of lowly mechanics rehearse a play to be performed for the Duke, only to have one of the actors end up with the head of a donkey and a night he’ll never forget. |
