<p> <strong>The Geauga Lyric Theater Guild announces a special performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream, of which a portion of the proceeds will go to the Chardon Healing Fund. The Geauga Theater is located in the heart of Chardon, OH, and Guild members have been deeply saddened by the tragic events that occurred at Chardon High School. The Chardon Healing Fund will be used to support both the families impacted and the healing of the community. The benefit show will be held on Thursday, March 15th at 7:30 p.m.. The cast and crew of A Midsummer Night's Dream are honored to perform for this benefit, and look forward to support from patrons.</strong></p>
<div><strong> In addition, due to cancelling the original opening weekend, the performance reserved for the students on Thursday, March 8th at 7:30 p.m., will now be open to the public.</strong></div><div><strong> There will be a discussion with the actors and director Mark Cipra immediately following the performance.</strong></div>
<p><strong> Tickets for all performances, including the two Thursday night shows, are $15.00 for adults and $13.00 for seniors and students.
