Rude Mechanicals stage the bard’s comedy with a contemporary twist

Thursday, Dec. 6, 2007 By Charles Schelle | Gazette Staff Writer

If Shakespeare could make a mix tape, it might have included Eurythmics’ ”Sweet Dreams” and Michael Jackson’s ‘‘Thriller.”

The Rude Mechanicals’ staging of the bard’s ‘‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream” features songs from those musicians and even a dance-off, but the story remains the same, said Tom Delise, Shakespeare Factory’s executive director.

The play opens tonight at 7 p.m. and runs through Saturday at Century High School, 355 Ronsdale Road, Eldersburg. Tickets are $6 and are available at the door.

The Rude Mechanicals (named after a troupe in ‘‘Midsummer Night’s Dream”) is composed of Century High School students.
