What does Midsummer taste like? Cheesy!🧀

The Dark Court of Oberon invites you to a night of midsummer revelry and magical tricksters. Midsummer Nightmare is a dark, immersive take on Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Our Summer 2026 performances are more than staged readings—they are interactive theatre experiences filled with eerie fairy magic, audience participation, theatrical mischief, and dancing with the Fae Court. Last night, the revelry continued long after the final lines were spoken. Now, only one performance remains.
