The production follows four young lovers, a group of amateur actors and the faerie king and queen, all caught up in magical mischief caused by a mischievous hobgoblin and an enchanted flower.

Under the direction of Rob Gioia, the student performers delivered a show full of energy, humor and enchantment.
