Its great funTyler Jeffreys, TheatriusAMidsummer. Nights. Dream. AASCDirectors Note. A Midsummer Nights Dream has always been my personal Shakespeare favorite. This production was performed by African American Shakespeare Company almost 2. When you think about a family friendly Shakespeare production, Midsummer is on the top of the list. There is something for everyone with a myriad of characters, intrigue, lovers, magic, and fantasy. A Midsummer Nights Dream was my opportunity to create a culturally vibrant production that incorporated elements that soars with the richness of Shakespeares language, while entwining the cultural rhythms of the West Indies. This production puts the audience in the middle of the action no passive observers at this show, audience members might be called on the stage to play with us, so if anyone is a shrinking violet I would suggest taking a seat as far from the stage as possible. A Midsummer Nights Dream is my personal homage to L. Peter Callender. Many people think of Mr. Callender as this stern and intense Shakespearean actor. What many people dont see is the man behind the image Funny, lively, vibrant, full of energy and extremely creative. Almost each character in the production is an accumulation of Peters personalityespecially Bottom. A Midsummer Nights Dream is my gift to Mr. Romance Movies Download The Pirates! Band Of Misfits.
