"A Midsummer Night's Dream" by Botanica Theatricum at Elings Park -- 2 Performances

A sold-out hit last summer, Theatricum Botanicum returns to Elings Park over Memorial Day Weekend with two performances of their enchanting outdoor staging of Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.”

The Park’s Godric Grove becomes an enchanted forest – complete with an oak tree growing through the stage – where human and fairy realms collide, resulting in comic confusions, mistaken identities, and unrequited love. All is joyously reconciled. But perhaps it was all a dream?

“Elings Park is... perfect for performances of the Bard’s best,” according to the Montecito Journal. It’s also a wonderful place to introduce your family to Shakespeare – outdoors and surrounded by nature, in Santa Barbara’s beautiful community park.

Performances are at 3 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, May 24 and 25 in Godric Grove.
