Photos: First look at Rise Up Arts Alliance’s A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM
A Midsummer Night's Dream will run from August 8 - 10, 2025.
Rise Up Arts Alliance presents the first of what we hope will become an annual Summer tradition.... our inaugural Shakespeare show is "A Midsummer Night's Dream"! "A Midsummer Night's Dream" is a comedy by William Shakespeare that intertwines the stories of four young Athenian lovers, a group of amateur actors, and the king and queen of the fairies, all entangled in a magical forest. The play explores themes of love, illusion, and the power of dreams, often blurring the lines between reality and fantasy.
