"Are you sure
That we are awake? It seems to me
That yet we sleep, we dream."
After five years of writing our own original productions, it seemed like the time was right to try a script with a few years of history. "A Midsummer Night's Dream" is the most accessible first start at Shakespeare, both for our actors and our audiences. We didn't want to water down the story or language, but as all good drama should, we wanted the play to become our own.
It did.
