A Midsummer Night's Dream

The award-winning Flabbergast Theatre bring a rambunctious approach to Shakespeare's much-loved comedy. A Midsummer Night's Dream, Goblins and Sprites run amok as the King and Queen of the Faeries settle a spat causing havoc among the humans caught up in their machinations. The action focuses on a troupe of players travelling with their beautiful vintage Haywain frantically multi-role-ing and bringing the world to life with joy and excitement. Arcadian folk songs, slapstick comedy, and mask work combine with a respectful approach to the text, an irreverent attitude and a focus on storytelling to bring the magic of midsummer alive with physical comedy, song and dance.
