A Midsummer Night’s Dream

持续时间

2 hr

Shakespeare’s tale of lovers, fairies, and shifting realities glows anew in a winter staging of A Midsummer Night's Dream that blends candlelight, live music, and playful mischief inside the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse.

    • A classic Shakespeare comedy reimagined for first-timers and long-time fans, this production mixes lovers, fairies, and mistaken identities in a forest that reshapes every character.

    • Directed by Holly Race Roughan with Naeem Hayat as co-director, this staging continues their partnership behind the 2022 Henry V co-production.

    • Featuring a company of actor-musicians and a hand-played score, this version highlights the story’s trickery and shifting power through music and candlelit design.

    • Presented with Headlong, Bristol Old Vic, and Leeds Playhouse, this winter run takes place in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse. Book A Midsummer Night's Dream London tickets!

    The story

    Set between a rigid Athenian court and a forest ruled by magic, A Midsummer Night’s Dream play follows four lovers who flee into the woods to escape an unforgiving law. Unaware that a rift between Oberon and Titania has unsettled the fairy world, they’re caught in a web of spells, misdirection, and shifting loyalties. As Puck’s interference blurs sense and desire, the night grows stranger and the boundaries between reality and illusion slip. When dawn arrives, the question becomes which version of events will hold.

    I loved the attention to detail in the theatre, and how from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave you are getting an incredible experience, not just a show! I love how excited and happy that makes everyone. Not to mention the show itself was incredible!!

    We wanted to tour the theater and wanted to see a show in London. This was a brilliant opportunity to do both. Exceeded our expectations. A caution to visitors. We were very lucky to get the only available taxi driver ( there on call for someone else - agreed to take us and return for his booked clients) to first take us to our hotel 10 minutes away. Suggest setting up an arrangement ahead oif time.

    Traditional Shakespeare with modern trimmings. Excellently executed by the cast and support team. Literature truly came to life. This is a must for anyone visiting London.
