Fans of ballet, the works of Shakespeare, and great music will love the showing of a performance of the ballet A Midsummer Night’s Dream in the Medford Leas Theater on Saturday, Nov. 5 at 2 p.m. at the Medford Leas Theater located at 1 Medford Way. The two-act ballet was choreographed and set to music, composed by Felix Mendelssohn, accompanying Shakespeare’s play of the same name.
BBC Concert Orchestra Conductor Stewart Kershaw conducted; the production featured dancers from the Pacific Northwest Ballet, with choreography from George Ballanchine. Enjoy the ballet from the comfort of the Medford Leas Theater, which boasts a state-of-the-art projection screen and surround sound system that will immerse you in the performance and the music.
