Tempest in a  Dream

Saturday April 05, 2008 - Saturday April 12, 2008
Rated: G

Hip Pocket Theatre and The Amon Carter Museum present a fun, fanciful and family friendly take on Shakespeare in a special play that honors Dickson and Flora Reeder, two of the artists featured in the special exhibition Intimate Modernism: Fort Worth Circle Artists in the 1940s, on view at the Carter through May 11, 2008.

The couple founded their Reeder Children’s Theater and Design School in Fort Worth in 1945, and for the next 12 years enabled hundreds of Fort Worth youth and their parents to experience a panoramic view of the interrelation of the arts. With Dickson Reeder creating the sets and costumes and Flora in charge of training the young actors, the school’s curriculum allowed children to undertake the study of a single play over the course of each school year, culminating in a spring performance.

Tempest in a Dream, adapted and directed by Hip Pocket Theatre’s Diane Simons, intertwines the plots of The Tempest and A Midsummer Night’s Dream into a story that pays tribute to the Reeders’ efforts with the school and its impact on the community.
