JULIUS CaeSAR BY WIL L I A M S H A KE S PE A R E The woods outside Athens are a busy place on this magical night! Four runaway lovers find themselves in the middle of a dispute between the King and Queen of the fairies; all the while, a group of rude mechanicals attempt to produce a play. Between these unlikely groups flies Puck, armed only with a wicked sense of humor and a love potion capable of making anyone fall for the first person they set eyes upon. Appealing to the human desire to cross the boundary between reality and fantasy, A Midsummer Night’s Dream brilliantly expresses our shared human uncertainty about love. This classic tale returns to Door Shakespeare, this time created and directed by Joseph Hanreddy, whose critically acclaimed adaptation of Pride and Prejudice appeared on our stage in 2011.

Shakespeare’s political drama Julius Caesar will make its first ever appearance on Door Shakespeare’s stage this summer.

Brutus and his fellow Senators resolve that Caesar’s ambition must be overthrown, which in Rome can mean only one thing: the great general must be assassinated.
