Outdoor theatre: 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' by Shakespeare

Join us for outdoor theatre at Baggy Point with a performance brought to you by Sun & Moon.

  • Booking essential

‘Tis almost fairy time …’

It’s 1925, Midsummer’s Eve and the wedding of the century is just around the corner – an event so momentous that the magic of fairyland collides with the real world. In the heart of an enchanted forest, chaos reigns as bickering bohemian fairies clash with a hapless troupe of actors in rehearsal and a quartet of lovers fleeing from reality. With wild love potions, passion, power struggles, follies, blunders and long-simmering tensions at play, anything can happen ... This performance is an outdoor performance. We recommend that you bring blankets/chairs/cushions etc. to sit on. Come prepared for the weather with warm coats and waterproofs etc, as the performance will continue come rain come shine! We ask that you don’t bring umbrellas as these can obscure the view for other people in the audience.

6:30pm start time, picnics welcome from 5:30pm. There will be refreshments available on site, including snacks, cold & hot drinks.
