Outdoor Theatre at Kedleston Hall – A Midsummer Night's Dream
The Three Inch Fools present Shakespeare’s most iconic comedy.
- Booking essential
It’s Midsummer’s eve and deep in an enchanted forest mischief is stirring. The Fairy King and Queen are feuding, four runaway lovers are tying themselves in knots, and a troupe of quite appalling actors are preparing a theatrical extravaganza destined to impress. With shapeshifting trouble-maker Puck at the helm, the course of true love never did run smooth.
7pm start time, picnics welcome (refreshments will also be available to purchase) from 6pm. The performance will last approximately 100 minutes (+ a 20 minute interval).
