Outdoor Theatre; A Midsummer Night's Dream
When? 15 August 2024
Where? Nothe Fort - Weymouth
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!
Written by William Shakespeare
Adapted and Directed by Sarah Slator
Music by Simon Stallard
