A Magical Romantic Comedy by William Shakespeare

Written in late 1594 or early 1595, The Dream, as referred to in theatrical shorthand suggests that Shakespeare was interested in "oer-hasty marriages" and the consequences of falling in love too quickly.  Typical of Shakespeare's comedies, it is a romantic tale, with five love stories unfolding simultaneously as the sophisticated comedy encourages audiences to "glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven."

One of the most flipant plays ever written.  Elyot and Amanda, once married and now honeymooning with new spouses at the same hotel, meet by chance, reignite the old spark and impulsively elope.  After days of being reunited, they again find their fiery romance alternating between passions of love and anger.

This celebration of the mating game takes on the truths and myths behind that contemporary conundrum know as "the relationship."  Act I explores the journey from dating and waiting to love and marriage, while Act II reveals the agonies and triumphs of in-laws and newborns, trips in the car and pick-up techniques of the geriactric set.  This hilarious revue pays tribute to those who have loved and lost, to those who have fallen on their face at the portal of romance, to those who have dared to ask, "Say, what are you doing Saturday night?"
