Guilford High School Theatre Arts presents the Fall Play: A Midsummer Night's Dream
A Midsummer Night's Dream follows four young lovers—Hermia, Lysander, Helena, and Demetrius—who flee to a magical forest near Athens, only to be entangled in the fairy world's love potion shenanigans. There, a trick by the
mischievous Puck causes the fairy queen, Titania, to fall in love with the donkey-headed mortal actor, Bottom. Meanwhile, the lovers' own affections are confused, but eventually, the spells are reversed, the couples are happily paired, and the players perform a hilarious play at a triple wedding.
In a Woodstock-era reimagining of A Midsummer Night's Dream, the strictures of Athens are replaced by the social conventions and generational conflicts of the late 1960s. The forest becomes the legendary music festival itself, a countercultural space where rules are suspended and magic and mischief run wild.
