A Midsummer Night's Dream

A Midsummer Night’s Dream was performed in the Black Box Theater in the Ulrey Performing Art Center at Harding University. Unlike normal renditions, the production had a more tropical feel as it was located in the Bermuda Triangle during the 18th Century. The set could be described as a giant jungle gym and there was a platform in the middle of the audience that the Fairy Queen acted and slept upon for most of the show. The photos below show the Mystical Night Feel and there was a dull normal day feel as well. I was a carpenter, electrician, and the light board operator.
