A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM

by William Shakespeare
Monday 16 to Saturday 21 July 2018
Fountain Gardens, York House

Shakespeare's most popular and delightful comedy – set largely in a wood outside Athens and culminating in a massed wedding – is the perfect summer evenings entertainment for our annual summer show. The play brings together the formality of the military court, the boisterous enthusiasm of “The Rude Mechanicals” and the mysterious charged night-world of the Fairie. Our production will be inspired by the 1940s and steampunk.
