Local and beloved actor Jackie Jones (also a baker of muchly sought goodies), saw A Midsummer Night’s Dream recently and sent this lovely e-mail:
One is A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM at

Andrew Hamm's Dream cast IS a dream cast and
does the show in all its Shakespearean bawdiness.
Each of the cast portrays numerous characters to
definite distinction. This production really gives its
audience members the flavor of Shakespeare's
fun with words (be forewarned: no joke is left
unturned) without any of the stuffiness sometimes
used to cover it up! I'd say this would be great for
highschoolers, and middle-schoolers - and maybe
even precocious upper-elementary with the right
homework in advance. And there is original (and
traditional) music!
You’ve only five (5) chances left to catch it at
2nd Presbyterian’s perfectly Elizabethan chapel!
