Toil and Trouble Burlesque Presents A Midsummer Night's Dream

A Midsummer Night's Dream is Toil and Trouble's first ever full length Shakespearaen Burlesque show, to take place at our new venue in the upstairs lounge of the Federal in the NoHo Arts District. Over the past year and a half, we've become somewhat accustomed to breaking all of the conventional rules of burlesque, but this is something entirely new- even for us. The story of Midsummer will remain the same, the characters will remain the same, the script will even mostly remain the same, save for a few well-timed burlesque, dance, and vocal performances set to modern music peppered in to each act. We like to think of it as high brow burlesque, and low brow Shakespeare, if that makes any sense at all.
