Texas State's Department of Theatre and Dance Presents A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM
Texas State University's Department of Theatre and Dance is proudly presenting the play A Midsummer Night's Dream Nov. 18-23. Experience Shakespeare's most beloved comedy in our Performing Arts Center. Midsummer is a lighthearted exploration of love, fantasy and magic. Come watch the trials and tribulations of impulsive lovers, jealous inhabitants of fairy world, and the antics of an amateur acting troupe led by one of the hammiest characters ever written. Throughout, Shakespeare keeps us thoroughly entertained by exploring the changing perspectives of what we see and how we see each other in this wonderful, wacky and romantic comedy with music and dance.
"Each time I encounter this piece, I continue to find levels. To me, working on Shakespeare is like taking a walk on a never-ending spiral; you start where you left off last time, and discover that the production continues to reflect life's meaning in unique ways, riffing off of whatever is going on in our world at the time," says Chuck Ney who is directing the stage play.
The opening night for A Midsummer Night's Dream will be Tuesday, Nov. 18, and runs through Sunday, Nov.23. All performances will be in the new Patti Strickel Harrison Theatre. Individual tickets start at $15 for adults and $8 for students, and may be purchased by phone at 512-245-6500 or online at txstatepresents.com.
