For #ShakespeareSunday may I please remind you all of the 2013 #GlobeTheatre production of #AMidsummerNightsDream in which Oberon smooched twink Puck

R to @benedictrogers: And then I had the immense joy and pride of seeing my 11 year-old nephew performing with astonishing poise and talent in Benjamin Britten's opera of #AMidSummerNightsDream https://www.operabase.com/productions/a-midsummer-nights-dream-163063/en http://www.trinityboyschoir.co.uk/events/brittens-a-midsummer-nights-dream/ https://nitter.hongkongers.net/benedictrogers/status/1619818252334673920#m

And last, by way of #Introduction ... here’s a link to an article I wrote for a blog, which talks about one of the classes I like to teach: Tolkien’s Medieval English Sources. It’s about #Tolkien , The #LordOfTheRings, the #GawainPoet , #Shakespeare , #AMidsummerNightsDream , these weird #medieval creatures called #woodwoses , and more:

Here's #MyShakespeareWinter part 8 of 37:

#AMidsummerNightsDream is a true wonder...faeries, love spells, shapeshifting characters, romance & passion blooming like wild vines in a forest glade...and all of it is fresh & funny for modern ears, moonlit & dreamy for timeless souls
