“Lord, what fools these mortals be!”

Fall under the spell of Shakespeare's magical tale of midsummer madness. It

magic and mischief fill the forest as fantastical dreams blur with reality.

“Parting is such sweet sorrow that I shall say ‘Good night” till it be morrow.”

The greatest love story ever told, Shakespeare's powerful masterwork of
exhilarating love and loss will capture your imagination and leave you

warring families, and they dare to believe their love is strong enough to
overcome the violence around them.
