A perennial favorite, \u201cA Midsummer Night\u2019s Dream\u201d is one of the Bard\u2019s most delightful, outrageous and comical portrayals of love, mischief and duty. The performance is the culmination of the company\u2019s week-long residency \u2013 now in its 13th year \u2013 with students enrolled in HVCC\u2019s Theatre Arts Program that includes a variety of workshops guided by the professional actors.<\/p>\n

Shakespeare & Company\u2019s Northeast Regional Tour of Shakespeare brings rotating plays to middle and high schools, and other community venues, from February through May each year. Begun in 1982, the touring productions now reach more than 20,000 students, teachers and audience members annually and embody the company\u2019s educational mission to \u201cimmerse students in the world of Shakespeare and classical theatre in the most active and engaging ways.\u201d<\/p>\n

This performance, presented by HVCC\u2019s Cultural Affairs Program, coincides with the winter vacation week observed by most K-12 schools. Please call (518) 629-8071 or email d.gardner@hvcc.edu<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n
