A Midsummers Night Dream





A production of Shakespeare's Midsummer's Night Dream was performed in a local park by a youth theatre group. There were numerous performances done over a two week span, meeting great reviews. This is a play that the kids are familiar with, last year when celebrating Shakespeare's birthday we read and made puppets for this play.
The actors did a fabulous job, every one's favorite being the young lady who played Bottom. She was a boisterous and energetic performer, capturing her audience. The kids were enjoying the play so much that at intermission when we suggested leaving because of the 40 plus temperature and no shade, they were very opposed to the idea. We stayed, enjoying to the end, heading for ice cream afterwards!
