Hiring for Sales and Serviced Reps with opportunities to work up into other positions. Believe it or not, Shakesp eare is alive and well and he's living here in our happy little valley. Okay, okay. I'm speaking metaphorically. He's not actually ALIVE, alive, but his spirit lives on in a wonderful production of his classic A Midsummer Night's Dream, put on by Provo Theatre Company. For those of you who are familiar with the works of old Billy Shakespeare, you'll recognize this play as one of the funniest stories ever told by the master himself. It's got it all; laughter, romance, laughter, mischievous trickery, and did I mention laughter? It is hilarious. The rendition performed by P.T.C. is quite possibly the funniest version I have ever seen, I know, it shocked me too. I was blown out of the water by the artistic direction. Chris Clarke, who directed this production, said that he was trying to portray the timelessness of the tale. Each of the sets of characters is a mild representation of a different time period. They range from 30's dust bowl workers, which are Bottom and the other bumbling actors, to modern Circ de Sole performers as fairies. This is a great story that can take place during any time period, and Mr. Clarke does a great job of making you believe just that. The chemistry that exists between the players, especially the four crossed lovers, is phenomenal. The way the four handle the chaos is great. They are all so different, yet seem to go so well together. You've got a prissy little brat (Hermia), a slightly nerdy wild cat (Helena), a sniveling ladies man (Lysander), and a brutish lover boy (Demetrius), who all end up together, and they make it seem so right. They are all great and feed off of each other so well. To me, they made the show. All in all, this show is deft* nitely worth checking out. ItS a great date and a nice brea^ from the dinner and movjej norm. Tickets are availabG* at the Provo Theatre ConrJ pany box office Wednesday! through Saturday from 6 to-J)2 P.M.
