POLO – The Polo Area Community Theatre is presenting William Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" for two more shows Friday and Saturday.

The comedy play premiered last week and consists of four interconnecting plots, connected by a celebration of the wedding of Duke Theseus of Athens and the Amazon queen, Hippolyta, which are set simultaneously in the woodland and in the realm of Fairyland, under the light of the moon.

Performers will return to the stage at 7 p.m. Friday and 2 p.m. Saturday at Polo Town Hall, 117 Franklin Ave.

Tickets are $12 for adults, $10 for seniors 60 and older, and $7 for children 12 and younger.
