A Midsummer Night’s Dream
In the depths of winter, discover the magic of A Midsummer Night’s Dream as you’ve never seen it before.
To escape a society ruled by tyrannical law, four young lovers flee to the forest beyond the city walls. But the world of the woods has been turned upside down by a fierce battle between the Fairy King and Queen, Oberon and Titania, over a stolen child.
As their quarrel deepens, others fall prey to jealousy, manipulation, and the dark spells of Oberon’s unruly Puck. As day turns to night and snow begins to fall in summer, can anyone stop the Dream from turning into a nightmare?
Leeds Playhouse and Shakespeare’s Globe reunite with Headlong after 2022’s ‘extraordinary‘ 4* (The Observer) Henry V.
A production by Leeds Playhouse, Shakespeare’s Globe and Headlong, with Bristol Old Vic.
This production is generously supported by Charles Holloway OBE.
