The Summer Youth Shakespeare Ensemble—an Acting Up (in Acadiana) program—presents William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night's Dream. Over 30 children ages ten through senior in high school take on the roles of fools & fairies in a strange wood filled with magic, mischief, and mayhem. A Midsummer Night's Dream is the culmination of the Ensemble’s 15-day intensive performing arts camp, where students study all aspects of the performing arts: music, dance, design, acting, and more. The camp is equivalent to a language immersion program, allowing the young actors to perform a full Shakespearean play just eleven days after they are cast. Staff for the program and the production include: Hector LaSala, set design & instructor; Paige Krause, choreographer & dance instructor; Danny Devillier, composer & music instructor; Chad Trahan, costume design & instructor, and Amy Waguespack, director. Other instructors and interns include: Marla Kristicevich, Cissy Whipp, George Saucier, Laura Sellers, Lian Cheramie, Hannah Briggs, Ricky Briggs, Megan LeBleu, Harmony Decker, Kara Guarisco, and Katie Lahey.
Performances take place July 17, 18, 24, & 25 at 7:30 PM and July 19 & 26 at 2 PM at the Acadiana Center for the Arts. For tickets call (337) 233-7060; for more information call (337) 739-4273.
