No Exit<br />
by Jean Paul Sartre<br />
Two women and one man are locked up together for eternity in<br />
one hideous room in hell. The windows are bricked up; there are<br />
no mirrors; the electric lights can never be turned off; and there is<br />
no exit. The irony of this hell is that its torture is not of the rack and<br />
fire, but of the burning humiliation of each soul as it is stripped of<br />
its pretenses by the cruel curiosity of the damned. Here the soul<br />
is shorn of secrecy, and even the blackest deeds are mercilessly<br />
exposed to the fierce light of hell. It is an eternal torment.<br />
A Midsummer Night’s Dream<br />
by William Shakespeare<br />
Shakespeare’s classic and most beloved comedy portrays the<br />
events surrounding the marriage of Theseus, the Duke of Athens,<br />
to Hippolyta, the former queen of the Amazons. Included in the<br />
festivities are the adventures of four young Athenian lovers: Helena,<br />
Hermia, Lysander and Demetrius, who in a series of mismatches and<br />
mistaken identities are magically reconciled. A group of amateur<br />
actors are manipulated by fairies while preparing for the upcoming<br />
wedding feast. A fun and frolicsome adventure will be had by all.<br />
