Hudson Armory Project to present Shakespeare in the Park

A performance of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” will be presented at the Hudson Armory on Aug. 2 and 3 at 7 p.m., with an additional show on Aug. 4 at 2 p.m.

“It’s a wonderful, cooperative experience. It helps them bring in theater to Hudson and at the same time it’s designed as a fundraiser for Hudson Armory,” said Hudson Cultural Alliance secretary and clerk Pat Luoto.

The play is produced by Hudson resident Anna Lee Percuoco and benefited from the Hudson Cultural Alliance’s services. The organization’s volunteers provided staff during the auditioning process, promotion and marketing, and the venue that allowed for the rehearsal and performance.

Attendees are asked to bring a lawn chair due to limited seating, and a $10 donation is encouraged.

“It’s a great opportunity to not only help the armory but to have a wonderful experience as far as a night out,” Luoto said.

Kith and Kin will be serving William Shakespeare-inspired cocktails as well as light fare.

Additionally, there will be a table displaying project information and a designated area for donations at both of these events.
