Photo Flash: The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey's A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM

The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey celebrates the 10th Anniversary of its Outdoor Stage - the Theatre's enormously popular annual summer tradition of family theatre "under-the-stars" - with the world's most popular comedy, A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare. Performances begin on June 22th and continue through July 31st. Performances are Tuesdays through Sundays at 8:15 p.m. and Saturdays and Sundays at 4:30 p.m. (beginning June 26) at the amphitheatre on the campus of the College of St. Elizabeth, 2 Convent Road (off Madison Avenue/Rt. 124) in Morris Township.

For tickets or more information, call 973-408-5600 or visit www.ShakespeareNJ.org. Groups of 10 or more are eligible for group discounts. Picnicking on the expansive lawn surrounding the theatre is welcomed. Audience members may bring their own food and beverages, or purchase snacks and soft drinks on-site. Patrons are encouraged to bring a blanket or low beach chair. All ages will enjoy the antics of the fantastical characters that populate the magical forest in Shakespeare's comedy -- from the mischievous spirit Puck, to the whimsical fairies, to the spellbound young lovers, to the hysterical "rude mechanicals" who want to put on a play, to Nick Bottom, the weaver, who wants to perform all the roles.
