A Midsummer Night’s Dream
Featuring short interview with Kaeridwyn, a newcomer to be, about the theater classes at TLC (the learning community) which is based opposite Dana. Since January, she has been giving theater classes to children interested in theater and acting, working towards a performance of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Kaeridwyn has kept the lines as much is possible in original Iambic pentameter.
A Midsummer Night’s Dream comedy play by William Shakespeare, which is believed to have been written between 1590 and 1597. It portrays the events surrounding the marriage of the Duke of Athens, Theseus, and Hippolyta. It follows the adventures of four young Athenian lovers and a group of six amateur actors (the mechanicals), who are controlled and manipulated by the fairies who inhabit the forest in which most of the play is set. The play is one of Shakespeare’s most popular works for the stage and is widely performed across the world.
