A Midsummer Night Scream

Show Information

“The course of true love never did run smooth – out here, it doesn’t run at all.”

Step into 1987 in a deep Blue Ridge hemlock grove as five friends gather for a pre-wedding weekend. Repressed trauma and forbidden feelings awaken an ancient woodland deity in an ’80s folk-horror retelling of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The ultimate high-sensory experience this Halloween.
