Bard In The Quad
A Midsummer Night's Dream
Saturday, July 26, 2008 8:00 PM - 10:00 PM
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3rd Annual Bard in the Quad: A Midsummer Night’s Dream by William
Shakespeare, adapted by Scott Palmer
For the 2008 Oregon State University "Bard in the Quad" production,
director Scott Palmer has taken Shakespeare's most beloved comedy and
placed it in the chaotic, frenetic and highly stylized world of 1920's
Silent Film-Hollywood.
A Midsummer Night's Dream features a cast of more than 18 actors,
including the return of visiting artist Maggie Chapin (who played
Beatrice in last year's Much Ado) as Bottom, and new visiting artist
Johanne Scoular as Helena. All of the actors will be playing
recognizable icons of Hollywood's Silent Film Era (such as Rudolph
Valentino, Theda Bara, Fanny Brice, Charlie Chaplin, Louise Brookes,
and Harold Lloyd) as well as performing in the highly structured style
of silent film actors of the era.
Tickets are $14 general admission, $10 students and seniors, and $7
for OSU students and can be reserved online at http://www.bardinthequad.org,
by phone at 541 737 2784 or purchased in person at the Memorial Union
business office during normal business hours Monday - Friday. There
will also be a box office facility open in the Memorial Union Quad
starting at 7:00pm on each performance evening.
