About

You'll step into a disco wonderland where mirror balls spin and roller skaters weave through the crowd. The Donkey Show is a campy theater production that turns Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream into a 70s dance party, complete with feathered divas and hustle queens.

The show unfolds around you on the dance floor, then the party keeps going into the night. It's a mixed gay and straight crowd, perfect for anyone who loves disco. If you're up for more Cambridge arts, check out the nearby Museum of Fine Arts, Boston .
