Short Shakespeare! A Midsummer Night’s Dream is the perfect choice for families or any time-challenged theater fans. This 75-minute abridged version brings Shakespeare’s magical comedy to life at The Yard at Chicago Shakespeare, where its extended run through the end of February will serve thousands of additional students and families this year. One evening, four young lovers find themselves lost in the forest. When the Fairy Court finds them, hijinks and hilarity ensue until the dawn. Following the performance, the cast remains on stage for a Q&A session, then joins the audience in the lobby for conversation and photos.
