Midsummer on the Fall Stage

In November, the theatre department presented Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream on the Main Stage. Here Titania (Sydney McClune CAS '08) and Oberon (Matt Poole CAS '08) watch the fairy dance that concludes the play. The fairies were played by Alex Ramirez CAS '10, Sylvia Walter-Caldera CAS '10, Enid Moore CAS '10, Flynn De Bona CAS '10, Erin Dees CAS '10, and Andy Schwab CAS '11. The play's director was Stephen Weeks, associate professor of theatre, and its designer was Michael Olich, associate professor of theatre. Photo by Dale Peterson
