The Keegan Theatre closes out its 17th season with the world premiere A Midsummer Night's Riot, reuniting the artistic team of playwright Rosemary Jenkinson, director Abigail Isaac, and Josh Sticklin in another one-man tour de force. This is Keegan's third time producing acclaimed Irish playwright Rosemary Jenkinson's work - previous shows Basra Boy and Cuchullain were met with widespread critical praise, and audiences were delighted and moved by the wicked wit and piercing humanity in the script.
