Repertory Company Theatre kicks off 2010-2011 Season with Shakespeare’s classic, A Midsummer Night’s Dream but with at twist. “This play is set in India,” states show’s director, Michelle Breedlove. “And I am planning choreography for the Bollywood score.I think it adds a colorful, magical flavor to the show.” The Bollywood numbers will be choreographed by guest choreographer, Caris Dunn.

 

A Midsummer Night’s Dream --- comic and fantastical --- is a favorite of summer Shakespeare theatres across the country.  "A Midsummer Night’s Dream is the perfect way to start our new season,” says Debra Carter, Artistic Director. 

In this magical, far-eastern world, fairies dance their way across the jungle, and elemental desires hold sway: love and jealousy, pride and hate. The warring passions of Oberon and Titania, the King and Queen of the Fairies (Darin Fimple and Laura Alley) have upset the natural balance of the world, and their jealous games set into motion the mishaps of the play.  The Star-Crossed Lovers will be played by Robin Clayton, Brian Grunkowski, Jennifer McMillin and Chris Edwards.
