In this innovative adaptation, with a twist, the mischievous fairy queen Titania (played by multi-award-winning actor of the stage and screen Susan Angelo) takes center stage as she flips the spell onto Oberon, her mischievous counterpart. Set in the mystical Athenian Forest, where love and tomfoolery collide, audiences will be transported into a world where the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur. ESPtheatre’s production promises to captivate audiences with its whimsical charm and spellbinding performances.
Nestled in the heart of Frederick’s historic city, our festival celebrates the enduring legacy of William Shakespeare with a captivating lineup of performances, workshops, and events.
