A Midsummer Night's Dream

21 June 2013

The Festival of Players bring William Shakespeare's charming tale of tangled love, befuddled heroes, hopeless rogues, playful fairies and the hope of wedded bliss. The Duke of Athens and the Queen of the Amazons are to be married, but this is a Tudor comedy, so not all runs smoothly. A wonderful evening of confusion, clever wordplay and slapstick; the Bard at his comic best. Please note this is an outdoor performance so bring your own seating.

Suitable for

  • Any age

When

From 7:30pm

Admission

Adults £15.00, Concessions (Seniors and Students) £13.00 and Children £9.00.
