Stay at The Wadham Event Calendar
A Midsummer Night’s Dream: This Is My Theatre
Date: 15 August
Time: 7:00pm – 8:30pm
“I have had a most rare vision. I have had a dream, past the wit of man to say what dream it was.”
Join us for an enchanting evening as the woods outside Athens come alive. Four young Athenian lovers are lost in the forest, Oberon and Titania, the fairy king and queen, are quarrelling, and a group of craftsmen (who also happen to be some not-so-very-talented actors) are secretly rehearsing their play.
William Shakespeare’s timeless tale of love, mistaken identity, and magic returns in a critically acclaimed production that will delight audiences once again this summer!
