Seattle Shakespeare Company Presents 'Midsummer'
By: BWW News Desk Jun. 30, 2008
The Seattle Shakespeare Company presents "A Midsummer Night's Dream" By William Shakespeare and Directed by Vanessa Miller.
A bit of glittering Vegas-pixie dust is sprinkled
over lovers and fools alike in this casino-themed take on Shakespeare's
most popular comedy. The stakes are high for fairy rulers Oberon and
Titania as they gamble with love and power, drawing two sets of mortal
lovers and a handyman/actor called Bottom into their wicked game. The
wild card in this stacked deck is Puck who magically muddles the
romance and comic confusion to dizzying heights.
From July 12th through August 3rd in parks throughout King, Pierce and Snohomish counties.
The production is free and open to the public. You will not need reservations or tickets but we do recommend arriving at least 20 minutes before the start of the show to secure a good spot on the lawn.For more information visti www.seattleshakespeare.org. Photos by John Ulman.
