Prepare to be enchanted! Step into a kaleidoscope of whimsy and wonder as Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream dances into the glitz and glamour of Xanadu! This spellbinding reimagining fuses the bard’s timeless tale of love, mischief, and magic with the pulsating beat of ELO, disco and roller-skating flair.
Are you ready to believe in the music of love? 🌟✨
