Hull Truck Theatre presents a community production of

A Midsummer Night’s Dream

by William Shakespeare

The adventure begins when an argument between Oberon and Titania, King, and Queen of the Fairies, fills an enchanted forest with mischief. At the same time, four young lovers face a tangle of unrequited love and for Hermia, the threat of death if she doesn’t marry the man her father has chosen. Determined to be true to their hearts they escape into the woods, right into the hands of the fairies. Bottom the Weaver and his comedy crew of Mechanicals are in the woods to rehearse a play for the upcoming royal wedding. They too are caught up in the tricks of fairy Puck and his mischievous matchmaking. When morning is on the horizon it is a race against time… will they all awaken from this confusion of a dream?

A Midsummer Night’s Dream was performed by a cast of over 40 community members and performed in Hull Truck Theatre’s Main Space from Saturday 2nd July until Saturday 9th July 2022.
