Date Night | Shakespeare Lovers | Fans of romantic comedies |

Demetrius is set to marry Hermia except Hermia loves Lysander, and Demetrius is obsessed with Hermia’s best friend, Helena. When the four lovers flee to the forest, they enter a world of enchantment, trickery, and tangled hearts as fairies meddle with mortal emotions.

Nicholas Hytner’s celebrated production returns after a sold-out, five-star run in 2019, bringing his signature clarity and wit to this chaotic, romantic comedy. Opt for the seated experience at the Bridge Theatre and enjoy A Midsummer Night’s Dream from the comfort of tiered, wraparound galleries that offer a sweeping view of the magical forest below. While the immersive pit places standing audience members in the heart of the action, seated viewers get a broader perspective: perfect for taking in Bunny Christie’s award-winning design and choreographed by Arlene Phillips). Catch is the same acclaimed production that stunned audiences in 2019 with its inventive, fluid direction and standout performances, and it’s back by popular demand. From your seat, you’ll witness the seamless blend of movement, sound, and light as fairies fly and lovers collide in this thrillingly reimagined Shakespearean world.
