Bare Knuckle Theatre Co presents 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' (Theatre)
Location:The Gate, Keppoch Street
All seems well in the village of St Athens when Mayor Theseus announces he will marry Hippolyta, more commonly known Queen of the Amazons. His peaceful walk across the countryside is ambushed by Egeus' complaint that his daughter Hermia refuses to marry his chosen suitor, Flight Lieutenant Demetrius, since she's in love with Lysander, who Egeus the pub landlord, heartily dislikes. Egeus calls on an ancient law forcing Theseus to declare that Hermia must marry Demetrius or choose between death or joining a nunnery. Lysander asks Hermia to elope with him to the forest. Hermia's friend, Helena, learns of this and decides to inform Demetrius, whom she loves. Demetrius, though, loves Hermia. Confused yet? It's not over yet as even more wackiness ensues...
