A Midsummer Night's Dream

Featuring: Maryland Opera Studio

Presented by: Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center and the University of Maryland School of Music

by Benjamin Britten
libretto adapted from William Shakespeare
by Benjamin Britten and Peter Pears
Nick Olcott, director

Shakespeare’s classic tale of magic and romance sings! In an enchanted wood near Athens, Oberon and Tytania feud over their fairy kingdom while love-sick Helena and scornful Demetrius pursue eloping lovers Hermia and Lysander. Mischief-maker Puck meddles in the matter, and steadfast sweethearts prove fickle before order is finally restored and lovers are reconciled. A fanciful comedy, minimally produced, with piano accompaniment. Performed in English with supertitles.

This event is $20 for the general public and $7 for full-time students.
