A MIDSUMMER

NIGHT'S DREAM

Redgrave "Shakesbeer" Festival 2018

Immerse yourself in the Redgrave’s mythological past, where history meets legend, as you enjoy the timeless story of A Midsummer Night’s Dream upon the backdrop of Saxons, druids, Norse gods and vikings.

The inaugural production at the Redgrave Shakesbeer Festival borrows lore and mythos from many different ages of this rich and fascinating area, creating a magical collage which goes hand in hand with Shakespeare’s folkloric masterpiece.

Live musicians and a beautiful site-specific set design support a fantastic cast of community and sheffield-based actors in an evening of open-air theatre, not to mention a little beer tasting!

​

Performed at Star Wing Brewery, July 2018.
