ABOUT THE PLAY Assistant Professor of Theatre, Cornel Gabara, will direct "A Midsummer Night's Dream," one of William Shakespeare's best-known comedies. Elaborate preparations for a royal wedding stir the hearts and minds of all in the Duke's court, but Gabara adds that the story is really presented from the perspective of the character Nick Bottom, a lowly court servant who sleeps and dreams of fairies, romantic intrigue and a reversal of his own misfortune. It is his hopes and dreams-and scheming-that bring the play to life.
Gabara says that the major theme of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" is equal and opposing forces-summer and winter, men and women, night and day, rich and poor-struggling to get into balance. In the end it is always love that brings them back into equilibrium. But oh, what a comedy in between as just the littlest thing sets everyone reeling!
