Family Theatre: A Midsummer Night's Dream, Sun 29 June (Age 11+)

Step into a world of magic and mischief as Quantum Theatre brings us Shakespeare’s enchanting comedy, A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Settle in among the roses and stream with a picnic and enjoy an outdoor theatre experience for the whole family.

  • Booking essential

Join us for a spellbinding outdoor performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Shakespeare’s timeless tale of love, mischief, and magic.

On a midsummer night like no other, feuding fairies, star-crossed lovers, and a hapless troupe of actors find themselves caught in a world where nothing is as it seems.

Quantum Theatre’s celebrated production of Shakespeare’s most beloved play weaves romance, intrigue, and enchantment into one unforgettable evening. As Oberon, King of the Fairies, clashes with his Queen, Titania, four young lovers become entangled in their magical quarrel, until no mortal is safe in the bewitching woods outside Athens.

This delightful production blends real life with the supernatural, where wisp-like fairies, unsuspecting artisans, and ardent lovers are spun together by the finest gossamer thread:

"I have had a dream, past the wit of man to say what dream it was…"

Bring a blanket, pack a picnic, and let yourself be whisked away into Shakespeare’s most magical comedy.
