The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey and the College of Saint Elizabeth celebrate their 10-year collaboration with a benefit performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream in the College’s outdoor Greek Theatre, Friday, July 15, 2011, 8:15 p.m. All proceeds from the event will benefit CSE student scholarships.

CSE Outdoor Greek Theatre Provides a Unique Venue for Performances


Created in 1932, the CSE Greek Theatre was a labor of love. Constructed by College employees using stones gathered from the campus under the supervision of Sister Marie Victoire Corr of the Latin Department, it is modeled after the Theater of Dionysius in Athens. Throughout the following decades, the theatre has become a favorite destination on campus and the site of many plays and concerts.
Play is One of the Bard’s Most Popular Works

Boy loves girl … girl loves boy … boy doesn’t love girl … It is an old story, but when Shakespeare doses his characters with a love potion, and adds the antics of fairies, the story becomes magical. A Midsummer Night’s Dream is one of Shakespeare’s most popular plays, filled with hilarious situations that will delight audiences of all ages. It is the perfect play to see under a summer moon.

Sponsored by the Sisters of Charity of Saint Elizabeth, Convent Station, New Jersey, the College of Saint Elizabeth enrolls more than 2,100 full- and part-time students in more than 25 undergraduate, 10 graduate and one doctoral degree programs.
