A Midsummer Night's Dream will be the SITI Company's first adventure with William Shakespeare. What better time than the present wicked era to capture the necessary lightness of being and intricacies of this multifaceted fictional landscape? Our production is born in the land of John Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath. It is a place of migration and poverty, a stark yet beautiful place full of yearning and dreams. The enchantment appears as if by magic via the imagination of people who have nothing to share but their hopes and dreams. This piece premiered at San Jose Repertory Theatre in January 2004.
