An unlikely relationship is forged in the quirky tourist shop called “A Little Piece of Heaven.” Restless biker Mike, who works in the shop, finds a friend in the sassy elderly Lily, although their relationship certainly doesn’t start out that way. But there’s something odd about this little shop owned by the equally odd Elizabeth and Henry. Suspicion and disagreement turn to respect and trust in this place where long lost things are finally found.
Performances August 6, 7, 8, 9, 13, 14, 15 & 16

This production reimagines Shakespeare’s beloved comedy at the height of the Industrial Revolution, infused with bright, anachronistic modern flashes. At the heart of the story is Bottom and his hilariously earnest band of Mechanicals, a group of hardworking tradespeople determined to rehearse a play for the Duke’s wedding. When their plans collide with a magical forest full of feuding fairies, mischievous spells, and confused young lovers, chaos erupts. Bold, funny, and full of theatrical invention, this Midsummer celebrates imagination, transformation, and the joyful ridiculousness of putting on a play.
