A Midsummer Night’s Dream
The world’s no longer what it seems.
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?
After their ‘extraordinary’ ★★★★ (The Observer) co-production of Henry V in 2022, Headlong reunite with Shakespeare’s Globe to delve into the darker currents of one of Shakespeare’s most beloved comedies. Directed by Headlong’s Artistic Director, Holly Race Roughan (Henry V), alongside co-director Naeem Hayat (The Comedy of Errors), this is A Midsummer Night’s Dream as only Headlong could imagine it.
