“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!
Critics have said of our Shakespeare productions: Visit Brighton “Shakespeare would have envisioned his play to be enjoyed exactly this way!”
Binge Fringe “A must-see for theatre fans and an education in how to make Shakespeare relevant again!”
A Midsummer Night’s Dream Written by William Shakespeare Adapted and Directed by Sarah Slator, Music by Simon Stallard. Brought to you by This is My Theatre.
The event will be held on the Main Lawn, around 10 minutes' walk from the entrance to Nymans.
This is an outdoor event so please dress for the weather.
Seating isn't provided, so you may wish to bring camping chairs, blankets or cushions. The event has level access.
