Making a magical return for its ninth consecutive year, we proudly present Shakespeare at the Lake. Step into a world of whimsical enchantment as A Midsummer Night’s Dream comes to life at the stunning Lake MacDonald Amphitheatre.

This is where we lay our scene: pack a picnic and take a short walk through the garden falls to the breathtaking view of Lake MacDonald framed by the spectacular Greco Roman style amphitheatre. 

This immersive outdoor performance unfolds as four Athenians run away to the forest only to have Puck the fairy make both of the boys fall in love with the same girl. The four run through the forest pursuing each other while Puck helps his master play a trick on the fairy queen.

With spellbinding performances and live music, delight the whole family this May with an unforgettable afternoon of magic and laughter by the lake.
