This year Portland State University Opera will present A Midsummer Night's Dream by Benjamin Britten for its spring production. Performance dates are April 26 & 29 at 7:30 PM, May 2 & 3 at 7:30 PM, and April 27 at 3:00 PM.

A Midsummer Night's Dream is the most beguiling and enchanting of all Benjamin Britten's operas. It is the collision of three groups: the fairy king and queen quarreling over a servant child, the lost and desperate lovers, and the comedic rustics who create their own version of opera buffa. One of the most successful adaptations of a Shakespeare play, A Midsummer Night's Dream is a work with spellbinding atmosphere that inhabits a truly unique dreamlike world.

Performances are at the Lincoln Performance Hall, 1620 SW Park Ave in Portland. David Edwards returns as Stage Director for the production and as the 2014 Jeannine B. Cowles Distinguished Professor of Opera.

For questions or to purchase tickets call 503-725-3307. You can select your own seats on line by going to our website at www.pdx.edu/boxoffice/tickets. Free with your ticket purchase is a pre-performance lecture with Bob Kingston one hour before each performance.

We look forward to seeing you this year!
