Helena & Hermia in The Enamored Odyssey

In Harken’s Hold, England, a Duke prepares for his grand wedding to the future Duchess. Local law states a daughter must obey her father’s every command, and that does not sit well with Hermia, whose father insists that she give her hand in marriage to a man she does not love. In defiance, Hermia sets off with the one she truly loves into the neighboring Far Forest, intending to marry him outside of their region’s jurisdiction. She swears her dearest friend Helena to secrecy along the way. Helena in turn galvanizes her own bruised heart, for she loves the man Hermia is evading.

As the menagerie of lovers trek deeper into the trees, crossing paths with the woods’ enchanted inhabitants and an amateur acting troupe, the Far Forest becomes center stage for pandemonium driven by infatuations both sincere and insincere… and the Forest dwellers do not take kindly to the presence of trespassers and defilers.

This new, musical adaptation of William Shakespeare’s beloved play, A Midsummer Night’s Dream paints the timeless tale in a fresh, spellbound coat. With heightened fantastical elements paying homage to folklore, no shortage of hilarity, and a multitude of original songs, Helena & Hermia in the Enamored Odyssey explores themes of self-discovery, unrequited love, lost love, and more. Join Helena, Hermia, and The Impostors on a high-flying quest to change fate.
