Drama

Tickets are available for our upcoming Winter Drama Production, William Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” on Wednesday, November 22 and Thursday, November 23. The shows start at 7:00pm and will be performed at the YMCA Seton Theatre. The ticket prices are $5 for student and $10 for adults. They can be purchased in the Drama Room (1811) or at the door on the night of the performance. We are so excited to show you what we have been working on this semester. 

“A Midsummer Night’s Dream” is a comedy that follows the story of four rebellious young lovers, a band of ambitious theatre players, and a feuding Fairy King and Queen. All of them cross paths one evening in an enchanted forest and when the mischief-making Puck, the Fairy King’s servant, is ordered to cast spells on everyone, what could possibly go wrong? There is love, jealousy, laughs and utter confusion – what more could you expect from a Shakespeare play!

We really appreciate your support of the Drama Department and hope to see you all there.
