The Oregon Shakespeare Festival has announced the cancellation of its Fall 2020 season, previously scheduled to begin September 8, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

At a press conference on May 7, Oregon’s Governor Kate Brown announced that “large gatherings, including live sporting events with audiences, concerts, festivals, and conventions, will not be able to return until at least the end of September, and not until a reliable treatment or prevention like a vaccine is available.”

If you have registered for A Midsummer Night’s Dream Gathering in Ashland, Oregon, you will be refunded by June 1. If you wish to donate all or part of your fees, please contact Richard Wilkerson at office@asdreams.org

Although this cancelation is very sad for all of us, we look forward to seeing you in Ashland in 2021 for the IASD International Conference. This year, we hope to see you online at IASD’s Special June Online Offerings, the Dream Study Groups Program in September, and the Worlds of Lucid Dreaming conference in October.
