Shakespeare In Hollywood
by Ken Ludwig directed by James Tallach produced by Sandy Armstrong This farce portrays life behind the scenes of 1930 Hollywood. Based on the 1934 Max Reinhardt film, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, this piece plays with the idea that real characters find their way onto the movie sets, ending up with a slapstick comedy including William Hays, Jim Cagney, Dick Powell, and the very real Puck and Oberon.
