A Mid-Summonite's Dream

A mid-summonite's dream is one such story, written in Elizabethan England around the 1590s. Set in Athens within the Royal Palace and its vast adjoining woodland, its 16th century Athens the way Shakespeare imagined it. A blend of classical Greek literary elements, myths and glory, mixed with the charm and romance of its altogether English author. The result is a setting that is thoroughly romantic, perfect for a play about love. All that's left to do now is listen to Simon's voice as we enter the magical world of a mid-summonsite stream.
