Fools for Love.
Dream’s theatrical spell is powerful enough to make audiences of all ages believe in anything.
Lovers lost in the woods succumb to magical potions, legendary Greek heroes plan a wedding, amateur actors rehearse a play in the forest, and the Queen of the Fairies falls in love with an ass-headed man.
This play is Shakespeare’s hilarious tribute to all you can imagine.
ABOUT THE TROUPE
Founded in the summer of 2014, The Rustic Mechanicals is the only troupe of actors in the state dedicated to touring the works of William Shakespeare and other classical playwrights.
The Mechanicals now tour five shows annually, including their summer West Virginia Shakespeare in the Park(s) outdoor tour and script-in-hand productions that we call, “a Play, a Pie, and a Pint,” focusing on making Shakespeare’s plays accessible to modern audiences by utilizing dynamic and extreme casting techniques paired with Shakespeare’s staging conditions.
