A Midsummer Night's Dream

The Festival of Players bring William Shakespeare's charming tale of tangled love, befuddled heroes, hopeless rogues, playful fairies and the hope of wedded bliss.

A wonderful evening of confusion, clever wordplay and slapstick; the Bard at his comic best. Please note this is an outdoor performance so bring your own seating.
