Support Season 7: Daydreams & Nightmares
Our 7th Season is filled with tales of daydreams and nightmares, the sun in the moon, the perfect season as the world looks to Southern Illinois in August for a perfect view of the eclipse. We will be looking at fantastical tales, re-imaginings, the stuff of nightmares and the stuff that comes out of nightmares. In February we bring you the nightmarish reality of Richard III in a reading at Alto Vineyards. We'll be exploring Hamlet and Macbeth throughout the season as the title characters fight and remunerate while they explore their dreams and nightmares. Our final reading will be a look at a play we've already toured as we breath new life into A Midsummer Night's Dream. BUT now we focus all of our energies on Tour 7: Julius Caesar. Shakespeare's view of Caesar is of course both nightmare and daydream as we look at the end of a society that seemed to be at it's peek, as we look at how greed and mistrust on all sides can cause rifts without repair when communication breaks down.
