A “Walking”Midsummer Night’s Dream at The Tallahassee Museum.
To close the season, Tallahassee Museum’s live‑oak groves will transform into fairy‑filled pathways for A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Over two weekends, small audience clusters will wander a guided trail, encountering Puck’s pranks, Titania’s enchanting court, and the Rude Mechanicals’ comic capers amid live oaks and starlit clearings. Zip lines will carry our faeries through the treetops, ensuring that this 90‑minute, no‑intermission adventure delivers delight at every turn.
