How many Shakespeare fans do I have out there? Anyone? Well, if you are a fan, I have good news for you... HBU has some pretty sold out theatre fans! I will admit, I am actually one of these theatre people, and I love it! Though Houston Baptist doesn't offer a theatre major, there is a club called the Rex Flemming Readers. I am a member of this club, and also have a part in the upcoming play we are putting on May 1&2: the very popular Shakespearean Comedy "A Midsummer's Night's Dream." I am pretty excited and my good friend, Andrew, who plays the part of Oberon, took some pictures of a rehearsal. Enjoy!

Helena, Hermia, and her lover, Lysander.. or me, Grace, and Corey!

Oberon and Puck, or Andrew and Lucy (who is also our director and president)

Kyra and Christina play fairies that will tend to Scott, who plays Bottom

Puck and Oberon tamper with the Hermia and Demetrius, who is played by Carlos

Christina and Sam act as some of the comic relief in the play

And here is most of the cast, all piled on a little HBU golf cart! We have fun together.

Well guys, if you are interested in pursuing theatre after high school, but might not want to study and major in it, then HBU and Rex Flemming is a great place for you! We are excited for next year to see what new talent comes in, and it might be you!
