Valdosta State University Theatre and Dance and the Valdosta Symphony Orchestra have teamed up for a special performance of William Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” March 31-April 2 in Whitehead Auditorium. Tickets are on sale now.
 
Written during the late 1500s, “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” is a story about falling in love and the crazy, maddening complications that arise during the process. Featuring incidental music from Felix Mendelssohn’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” Op. 61, which was written in 1842 at the request of King Frederick William IV of Prussia, Shakespeare fans of all ages are sure to delight in this comedic tale of mistaken identity, unrequited love, enchantment, and happily ever after.
 
Individual tickets for “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” are $27 for adults; $22 for VSU faculty, staff, and the military; and $10 for all students, including VSU students. Tickets for groups of 10 or more people at a single performance are $10 per person.
