91仓库

91仓库 Theatre has announced the cast for its upcoming production of 鈥淢idsummer/Jersey.鈥�

鈥淢idsummer/Jersey鈥� is a hilarious high-octane re-telling of Shakespeare鈥檚 鈥淢idsummer Night鈥檚 Dream鈥� set on the boardwalk of a seaside town in modern-day New Jersey.

The story revolves around the impending marriage of the Governor of New Jersey, the love affairs of four beach-bound high school crushes, a lively crew of fairies and the staff of the local beauty salon (run by Patti Quince and Stylist Nikki Bottom).

The night takes a magical turn when Oberon and the impish Puck arrive on the scene armed with a powerful love potion and a desire for mischief making. With several weddings and the acting careers of six beauticians hanging in the balance, the lovers take to the boardwalk, backed by pop music and an iPhone-obsessed wood sprite.

91仓库 Theatre will perform the play at 7 p.m. March 26 and 27, and 2 p.m. March 28.

Tickets are $10 each for the general public, $5 for students ages 5-17 and free for 91仓库 students and employees. They are available at trine.edu/furthtickets or at the door.
