Prolific choreographer Marek Cholewa leads the dancers of Alexandra Ballet and guest artists from the Kansas City Ballet in new sequences set to Felix Mendelssohn's seminal overture and incidental music. 

A Midsummer Night's Dream interprets Shakespeare's tale of quarreling lovers and mischievous fairies with easily flowing dances that use the play of light off dancers' bodies to create stunning tableaux and recharge the solar-powered exit signs. The score ranges from the grand organ swells and trumpet fanfares of the Wedding March to a rustic peasant dance built around a string refrain that imitates the sound of a braying donkey, working with the vibrant motions to keep even littler family members entertained.
