Main Stage
A Midsummer Night's Dream
By William Shakespeare
Directed by Ruth Smillie
What happens when your father forces you to choose between marrying someone you have no feelings for, life in a nunnery or death? You run away with your true love of course.
But when Hermia and Lysander escape to the enchanted woods, the real fun begins. Kings, Queens, dukes, fairies, young lovers, magic spells and love potions make this Shakespearean classic one of the most cherished (and fun!) plays ever written.
Filled with beautiful costumes and sets, A Midsummer Night’s Dream is truly a magical way to start the new Globe Theatre season.
