July 8, 2015 at 4:15 PM

You can't go wrong experiencing the classic Shakespearian themes of love, humor, subterfuge, and human foibles in Gannon University's Schuster Theatre's productions of A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Comedy of Errors, staged outdoors in the glowing dusk of summer at the Lake Erie Arboretum. Dream, directed by Alaina Maria Manchester, will be performed July 20, 22, 28, and Errors, directed by Fr. Shawn Clerkin, will be performed July 21, 27, 29. Take the family, soak in a beautiful evening, and let the light and the drama wash over you. This is what summer is for. – Mary Birdsong

7 p.m. // Lake Erie Arboretum in Frontier Park (Rain location is the Schuster Theatre, 626 Sassafras St. // Free Admission
