Caledon Library Book Discussion
A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare
Sunday, June 15th , 2 - 4pm slt
The Great Lawn of the Whitehorn Library, Caledon VIctoriaCity
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Caledon%20Victoria%20City/30/180/23
Considered the most varied and original of The Bard's early comedies, Midsummer Night's Dream is discovered anew by each generation, as its multiplicity of interpretations and productions shows. The play's fantastical wordplay and imagery is a gorgeous wrapper for a layered tale of the changeable nature of attachment & desire "momentany as a sound, swift as a shadow, short as any dream," which ends, as a good Elizabethan comedies must, with a wedding…but this one is a triple wedding, accompanied by the comic "Play within a play" of Pryamus & Thisbe.
Peopled by such memorable character s as Bottom the Weaver, Titania the proud and impulsive queen of the fairies, and Puck (or Robin Goodfellow), the play transports us to a realm as strange and familiar as a dream.
All lovers of Shakespeare and of fairy lore are invited to join us, as are all Amazon Queens, Sportive Dukes, Star-Crossed Lovers, Sprites, Merry Wanderers of the Night, Talking Walls and Diffident Lions, whether they have read the play or not
NOTE: The teleport takes you to a hub in Caledon VictoriaCity... Just follow the red arrow/beacon north through the Reading Room to the Great Lawn, or use the red and gold book-shaped Library Transport Device located at the telehub.
Please direct questions to JJ Drinkwater, Caledon Library.
This Discussion is part of the "Shakespeare Summer", produced by Radio Riel, with the kind assistance of the Foundation for Rich Content. The Dream will continue on June 21st, with a Gala Midsummer Night's Dream Ball, in the Enchanted sim of Hoy, 6-8pm slt. See the Radio Riel blog at http://radioriel.blogspot.com/ for more information.
