Story

A playful Shakespearean romp through the forest where teens run away from
their parents and run towards love, where a group of community theater
players rehearse a most lamentable tragedy, where the fairy world collides
with the real world and magic and zaniness ensue.  All set in the groovy
time period of the 1970's.
