A Midsummer Night's Dream at Capital Rep — April 14 - May 7, 2023

Friday, April 14, 2023 to Sunday, May 07, 2023
BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
In a world where women are captured and married to the highest bidder, what are four unrequited young lovers to do on a Midsummer’s night? Of course, run away into the dream-like arms of an enchanted forest where sprites lurk and fairies rule. While a feuding Fairy King and Queen are at war, their paths are crossed by Bottom, Quince and their friends presenting a play within a play. Chief mischief-maker Puck is on-hand to ensure that the gender-bending course of true love is anything but smooth and games of fantasy, love and dreams lead to transformation in Shakespeare’s most beguiling comedy.
