About this event
The ‘hilarious and heartfelt’ ★★★★ ( The Guardian ) A Midsummer Night’s Dream is now playing in London’s Globe Theatre, and you’re invited to be part of the magic. Director Emily Lim ’s ‘joyful staging’ ★★★★ ( The Times ) of Shakespeare’s comedy is ‘the ultimate communal celebration’ ★★★★★ ( Sunday Mirror ). As night deepens on the eve of a royal wedding, a company of amateur performers prepares a play for the big day and invite you to step into their story. Follow the players, lovers and fairies into the forest where hearts open, spells go awry and surprising transformations unfold. By dawn, everyone has been changed. Book your tickets for ‘irresistible fun’ ★★★★ ( Financial Times ) and ‘good vibes only’ ★★★★ ( Time Out ) under starry, summer skies. ‘Are we all met?’
