  3. A Midlife Summer’s Dream (OdysseyStage’s NextAct Festival)


Twenty years after A Midsummer Night’s Dream, the marriages once blessed by magic are fraying. Shakespearean romance collides with Groucho Marx–style wit as old spells unravel and new chaos takes hold in this witty new play by Charlotte Howard Runde, directed by Katrina Tarson.

Presented as part of OdysseyStage’s NextAct Festival 2025, a three-day celebration of new plays by NC playwrights. Other festival offerings include three additional staged readings, audience talkbacks, and a free Closing Toast on Sunday at 5 PM.

Tickets: $14 single | $27 Festival Pass
