A Midsummer Night's Dream

Adapted by Kate Jopson

Performed in the center of UCSD's campus, A Midsummer Night's Dream unleashed Puck on the dutiful UC students to teach them why a little rebellion now and then is a necessary thing. Starting in front of the towering architecture of the Geisel Library and traveling to a grove nestled in a hill, Midsummer broke UCSD audience attendance records and felt more like a rock-concert than a theatrical performance.
