A Midsummer Night's Dream is one of William Shakespeare's most popular plays, with almost everyone seemingly able to recount the antics of the fairies and characters like Bottom in the woods.

Now, guests at Boulder hotels can check out a new version of it if they head along to the city's theater on May 12th.

This is when Boulder Ballet will be showcasing their adaptation of the classic story in dance form, with performances available at 11:00 and 14:00 MDT.

Tickets cost $22 for general admission, but concessions are available for $15.

It is all part of the annual Mother's Day celebrations, so taking the family along to watch choreography by Ana Claire and Peter Davison could be the perfect treat.

Boulder Ballet was established in 1983 under the artistic direction of the legendary Wanda Tierney.

Residents of the Millennium Harvest House Boulder can reach Boulder Theater by taking a half-hour walk along Arapahoe Ave, or a seven-minute ride in a taxi.
