A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S MISCHIEF

By Gemma Curry – after William Shakespeare

The fairies in the forest are starting a fight – but which side are you on? Team Titania or Team Oberon?

Hoglets Theatre presents an interactive, fun and larger-than-life production, based on Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

Expect wild characters, raucous singalong songs, puppets, stunts, and some frankly ridiculous disco dancing! 

Get yourselves down to the forest – it’s all kicking off!

A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S MISCHIEF is a play designed especially for young children (with recommended ages being 5-11 years old – but everyone is welcome). And whilst we love the bard, no previous experience of Shakespeare is required!
