A Midsummer Night's Dream (Presented by Shotgun Players)

  • Ashby Stage 1901 Ashby Avenue Berkeley, CA, 94703 United States (map)

A fairy straddling a man with a "bottom's up" tattoo and a donkey head. They are standing in a moonlit forest.

The warrior queen, Hippolyta, is compelled to marry her captor, Theseus. A comical group of mechanics decides to gift the couple with a play performed at the wedding. Rehearsals are interrupted by a group of lovers in a chase of one another, heightened by magic juice administered by a mischievous fairy, Puck…and hilarity ensues. Shotgun has a reputation for bold re-imaginings of classic works. Buckle up for an adventure!
