About The Midsummer Project
In A Midsummer Night’s Dream Hermia and Lysander, two young lovers, escape into the nearby forest intending to elope. Demetrius, who is in love with Hermia, follows them, and Helena, who is in love with Demetrius, follows him. Meanwhile, a band of craftspeople gather to rehearse a play, and the forest is filled with fairies! In this adaptation eleven actors take us through key scenes from the play, splitting major roles and embodying multiple characters.
