A Midsummer Night's Dream

Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum
1419 N. Topanga Canyon Blvd. Topanga

The beauty of Topanga's countryside takes on a new dimension as fairies and mortals alike are beguiled by midsummer passions and puckish potions. In this signature Theatricum production, Shakespeare's most beloved comedy pits mischievous sprites against heartsick humans for a magical night of revelry, chaos, love and comedy. Mediterranean buffet dinners, with a costumed cast of fairies in attendance, take place every Thursday in Aug. at 6:30 p.m. in the theater's adjacent gardens, followed by an 8 p.m. performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream (separate admission, or combo packages available).

"...Shirley Jo Finney's staging does much to bring to life McCraney's convoluted tale of Oshoosi Size, his older brother Ogun, who's tired of "carrying your sins around on my back," and Oshoosi's friend Elegba, who tempts him to stray from the path Ogun presses him to follow. The actors-Gilbert Glenn Brown (Ogun), Theodore Perkins (Elegba) and especially Matthew Hancock (Oshoosi)-offer dynamic performances."
