Spring Into Shakespeare: A Midsummer Night’s Rave

 

Join us this spring as we celebrate The Bard with movies you might (or might not have!) known were Shakespeare adaptations.

This week’s selection is A Midsummer Night’s Rave (2002) – Life begins when the sun goes down for a group of party-prone friends attending an L.A. rave. The music starts and the dream begins as party-goer Puck gives them each a sample of his “love potion”. This glowing green liquid fuels their inner desires and allows the friends to connect with their long secret loves. Rated R.

This movie is based on A Midsummer Night’s Dream.. If you’d like to read the play before watching, stop by Riverton Library to check out a copy. If not, just drop in to enjoy the movie!

This program is presented by library staff on Tuesday, June 24th from 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm!
