A Midsummer Night’s Dream opens in Bolton July 5Humber River Shakespeare will again be starting its 2016 tour in Caledon. The company is performing A Midsummer Night's Dream this year, and the first two performances will be July 5 and 6 at Dick's Dam Park in Bolton. “It is always a treat for us to start our tour every summer in the idyllic setting of Dick's Dam Park,” the company's Artistic Director Kevin Hammond remarked. A Midsummer Night's Dream is a delightful tale of meddling fairies, star-crossed lovers, royal engagements and muddled tradesmen caught up in chaos. The most popular comedy in Shakespeare's canon, this hilarious romp has love on the loose in the woods. Add a misapplied love potion, mistaken identities and the most famous play-within-a play ever written, and you have a perfect recipe for joy and laughter. All performances are family friendly, and offered free of charge, but donations are gratefully accepted. The suggested donation is $20. Other performances will be July 7 at Schomberg Fairgrounds, July 8 at the LINK in Georgina, July 9 at Tasca Park in Nobleton, July 10 and 12 at the McMichael Canadian Art Collection in Kleinburg, July 13 at the Bradford Public Library and Cultural Centre, July 14 at Alton Mill Arts Centre, July 15, 16 and 17 at Town Park in Aurora, July 19 and 20 at Newmarket Riverwalk Commons, July 21, 22 and 23 at Thornlodge Park in Mississauga, July 24, 29, 30 and 31 at Montgomery's Inn in Etobicoke, July 26 at Etienne Brulé Park in Etobicoke and July 27 and 28 at the Old Mill in Toronto. All performances start at 7 p.m. Humber River Shakespeare has been touring professional, outdoor Shakespeare to communities across the GTA for the last NINE years. Their productions are done as in Shakespeare's day: in the open air, with simple sets, colourful costumes, a love of the language and a focus on playful storytelling. |
