a midsummer night’s dream
By William Shakespeare
Directed by Ryan Quinn
Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival visionary director Ryan Quinn sets Shakespeare’s beloved romantic comedy in the 1980s! The Breakfast Club and Heathers meets Labyrinth and Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome as the misadventures of four teen lovers lost in the forest; a throw-down in fairyland between a technoglam David Bowie King and dieselpunk Tina Turner Queen; and the antics of the most gnarly group of community theatre actors ever, collide in a fever memory of young love, “no more yielding but a dream.”
