I spent a few hours today taking portraits of all the students involved (with the exception of one who was out sick). They didn&#8217;t have their costumes yet, but some had makeup put on for the first time today. As you can see, Judah is one such actor. He plays the part of Oberon, feuding with Titania over the fate of a changeling boy.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Why should Titania cross her Oberon?<br \/>\nI do but beg a little changeling boy,<br \/>\nTo be my henchman.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>As you probably know, he concocts a potion made from the flower &#x2018;Love-in-idleness&#x2019; (the wild pansy, <em>Viola tricolor<\/em>) to make her fall in love with the first creature she sees upon waking. As is usual in such a play, particularly when the Bard of Avon is involved, things get complicated. If you want to know how it all ends, you&#8217;ll have to come next week. Show times are Thursday and Friday at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday at noon.
