THE RIDICULOUS PROJECT – “Dream, Love, Escape”
The Ridiculous Project seeks to spread joy to the community by giving audiences a fun and immersive theatrical experience where they are both reacting to and interacting with the story. This summer The Ridiculous Project invites you to join in an exploration of whimsy, magic, and language in a spirited retelling of one of Shakespeare’s most-loved plays, “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” transformed into a unique story of their own. “Dream, Love, Escape” brings us into a space together to acknowledge where we have been and to experience both the act and the celebration of a communal process of emerging.
