Outdoor theatre: A Midsummers Night's Dream - Sun 21 July 2024 (Gates 6pm, performance 7pm)
Bring a picnic and sit back, relax & enjoy a performance in front of the romantic ruins. Suitable for audiences of all ages, this adaptation of William Shakespeare’s hilarious love story is packed with merriment, music and plenty of mischief.
“I have had a most rare vision. I have had a dream,
past the wit of man to say what dream it was.”
The woods outside Athens are busy this night. Four young Athenian lovers are lost. Oberon and Titania, the king and queen of the fairy-folk, are quarrelling whilst a group of craftsmen (who also happen to be some not-so-very-talented actors) are meeting in secret to rehearse their play.
With its many parts, Shakespeare's story of love, mistaken identity and magic has remained popular with audiences across the world. Our critically acclaimed production returns this Summer to delight audiences again!
