Opening on November 20th, 2009 Hart House Theatre is proud to present a magical start to the holiday season with William Shakespeare's most widely performed comedy, A Midsummer Night's Dream.
By far the sexiest of his plays, A Midsummer Night's Dream depicts the multiple trysts and high-jinx of lovers as they meet in a forest over-run with fairies. While the fairies taunt and titillate the lovers in the forest, a group of well-meaning, but talentless commoners rehearse a play to be presented to the aristocracy of Athens.
Under the direction of Jeremy Hutton (Director of the record-breaking King Lear and Arcadia last season) the show is sure to be high-energy and full of tongue-in-cheek humour that will tease and thrill Hart House Theatre audiences.
