Why see A Midsummer Night's Dream?

What fools these mortals be

This season, don't miss the Bard's wondrous supernatural rom-com as the magic comes to you in this local production. A delightful and dizzying tale that still enraptures audiences after 400 years, prepare to enter a realm where a tiff between fairy royalty gets very, very out of hand, affecting supernatural folk and mortals alike!

What is the story?

A Midsummer Night's Dream focuses on three parallel stories while dealing with the universal theme of love and its complications. It follows the trials of two couples as they camp in a magical forest, the world of the fairy King and Queen who inhabit said forest and a group of tradesmen attempting to stage a production of 'Pyramus and Thisby' for the wedding of the Duke of Athens. In true Shakespearean comedy style, these stories don't stay separate for long and worlds collide in a spectacularly hilarious fashion. Love, action, magic, and comedy mix to create a truly magical spell.

My only remark: Fortress Around Your Heart needed to be in the set. Imagine that magnificent work embellished by the orchestra. Be still my beating heart! ... Read more

Sting, bringing out the feels still after all this time

My wife and I have been seeing Sting live since the Nothing Like The Sun tour, as well as the Police reunion... The man continues to punch above his weight with tasteful bass and guitar meanderings alongside a crackerjack live band. And last night in San Diego, he played the tunes that get all of us. Not too many acts can move me to tears, but when you share something with the one you love, it hits all the right notes. ... Read more
