About
The Acting Company makes its historic return to Spa Little Theater with A Midsummer Night’s Dream, a fast-paced comedy and coming-of-age story based on Shakespeare’s play.
Puck stumbles upon a theater where stagehands are setting up for a show without its cast. Puck bewitches them into performing the whole play, as they take on the lovers, mechanicals, and faeries in a tale of mistaken identities, romantic entanglements, and comical transformations. The production features music, magic, and a cast of New York-based artists.
The company held summer residencies at Spa Little Theater from 1972 through the early 1980s.
Founded by John Houseman and Margot Harley, The Acting Company tours classic plays and newly commissioned adaptations, and provides arts-in-education programs. Since 1972, it has performed for more than 4 million people in 48 states and 10 foreign countries. Learn more at theactingcompany.org.
