A Midsummer Night’s Dream

On a midsummer’s night Hermia and her lover Lysander flee from Athens and Demetrius – the man Hermia’s father favours as a son-in-law. Demetrius follows, pursued by Helena who loves him in spite of being spurned in favour of Hermia. On the same night Bottom and his friends leave Athens to find somewhere quiet to rehearse their play which is to be performed at the wedding feast of Duke Theseus. Drawn into the woods they enter a world of magic, mystery and wonder.

Ultraviolet Productions is proud to present their 2022 tour that unites their love for the circus & years of experience in touring outdoor Shakespeare. The forest of Fairyland is alive with imagination. An array of lost circus performers wander through the trees. Clowns cry. Dancers sway. And all around, fairies sing hypnotic lullabies. An entirely original adaptation of Shakespeare’s infamous comedy of love, magic, and dreams, UVP’s unique blend of live music, expressive dance and mystifying magic promises to spin a tale as wild as the most love-sick imagination.
