Love incites madness and fairy juice confuses four young lovers fleeing a tyrannical father and an unjust law. All four find themselves in an enchanted forest where fairies and sprites intervene in human affairs, local workers rehearse amateur theatricals, and the boundaries between reality and imagination blur. Hilarity, love, magic and music merge in A Midsummer Night’s Dream, one of Shakespeare’s best-loved comedies.

After a short, but successful run at The Bankhead Theater, THE SEAGULL returns to the outdoor venue at Concannon.
"A rising star and one on her way down, a cutting edge writer and a popular novelist, a school teacher, a doctor, two housekeepers and a farm manager meet together at the shores of a majestic lake. Love is in the air, and love drives us to the ridiculous and the sublime!"
Chekov, the founder of modern realism's masterpiece of tragi-comedy.

“Lark in the Park,” led my a museum docent and sponsored by Pleasanton’s Museum On Main, takes you one Saturday each month to one of Pleasanton’s local parks and helps you explore the local history that surrounds it. Participants begin each event at the designated park where the activities will take place.
This month is a visit to Delucchi Park. All events are from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
An information sheet on each park will be handed out. Photos of the parks will be available for purchase, $5 for one quality photo; $1 for one photocopy. An activity related to that park’s history will be presented. Yearly membership in the Lark in the Park is $25 per person and includes passport, binder, and one photo of each park’s special history.
Donations are gratefully accepted and a portion will go toward the Museum’s Educational Scholarship Fund. The goal this year is to raise $1,000 for a competitive scholarship between the two high schools. Next year plans are to have scholarship programs for both schools.

The Lamplighters bring their signature flair to one of America’s most beloved musicals – My Fair Lady. George Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion rivals the wit and sting of W.S. Gilbert in telling the story of the transformation of a cockney “guttersnipe” into an upper class lady accepted in the best of society. It’s all in the accent and the clothes. I could have danced all night.. Wouldn’t it be loverly.. On the street where you live.. I’ve grown accustomed to her face.. the hit tunes just keep coming in this Broadway classic. Special guest Geoff Hoyle appears as the incorrigible Alfred P. Doolittle.
