A high-energy, one-act immersive musical that reframes A Midsummer Night’s Dream through the lens of Shakespeare’s most unlikely dreamer. Staying true to the text but set against live bluegrass music, it transports audiences to a fairy revel in the mountains. Bottom’s transformation collides with Oberon, Titania, and Puck’s mischief, blending aerial work, clowning, acrobatics, dance and immersive audience interaction.
