If truth has lost its meaning, how long can love survive? You’ll find yourself on the edge of your seat as the deadly machinations unfold.

othello & A mIDSUMMER’S nIGHT dREAM
by William Shakespeare
Experience both the comedy and tragedy that come with love.
Evil is everywhere in Shakespeare’s great tragedy of racism and jealousy, as the love of Othello and Desdemona is destroyed by envy, and fact is twisted by innuendo.
In A Midsummer’s Night Dream, there are no easy solutions, no black and white, no good guys or bad guys. In Midsummer, love is not a thing to be won but is rather a thing to be lost, to fight for, and to regain.
