This year’s Hempfield High School’s fall production scheduled for Friday Novemeber 20 and Saturday November 21 at 7:30 in the Performing Arts Center is William Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” As everyone knows, the beauty of Shakespeare is that his works can be placed anywhere, in any time period. Our production is placed on a Caribbean island in 2009. Shakespeare’s forest is the island’s jungle. Entertainment tonight, “Somebody’s Gotta Have Talent,” the Weather Channel, and “on-the-spot” reporters comment on the action. The characters break into songs, ranging form “Mamma Mia,” to “Oh, What a Night.” The fairies dance and the actors blend Shakespearean language with improvisation to give the play a modern flair.
