The 2015 Shakespeare in the Grove production will be A Midsummer Night’s Dream.
Shakespeare in the Grove has been produced by ARTFARM every summer since 2006. ARTFARM’s professional Shakespeare Ensemble brings its signature physical style to a beautiful cedar grove overlooking the Connecticut River Valley on the campus of Middlesex Community College. Each performance is preceded by 45 minutes of live music, and the Shakespeare performances themselves feature live musical accompaniment.
Performances begin at 7 pm Wednesday, through Saturday, July 15 – 19 & 23 – 26, with live music preceding each performance at 6 pm. Audience members are encouraged to bring blankets, chairs and a picnic to enjoy while taking in the Connecticut River Valley.
