The 2025 CAP Classic, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, is a magical mess of love, mischief, and mix-ups. Four young lovers run into the woods, where fairy magic makes them fall for the wrong people, thanks to a prankster named Puck. Meanwhile, a guy rehearsing a play gets turned into a donkey and accidentally wins the love of the fairy queen. As the chaos unfolds, the fairy king Oberon sorts out the confusion and sets it all right, and everyone lives happily ever after. The story wraps up with a joyful triple wedding and a funny play thrown in for good measure! Love and imagination — exactly what Shakespeare did best!
