Open Air Maidenhead Shakespeare - A midsummer Nights Dream
Maidenhead Drama Guild will be performing A Midsummer Nights Dream in the idyllic grounds of the Berkshire College of Agriculture from Tuesday 22nd July to Friday 25th July. Ticket Prices are £11 and £9 concessions . A buffet pre-theatre dinner can also be purchased at £13.50 per head.
The play’s main plot involves two sets of couples whose romantic cross-purposes are complicated even further by their entry into the fairyland woods where the Fairy King and Queen preside. In a brilliant satirical device, another set of characters - Bottom the weaver and his “rude mechanicals”- are introduced. They have entered the same enchanted woods to rehearse a home-spun play which leads to hilarious results.
A Midsummer Night’s Dream contains wonderfully lyrical expressions of lighter Shakespearean themes, notably love, dreams and the creative imagination itself. A truly ideal entertainment for a summer’s evening in a sylvan setting.
Maidenhead Drama Guild will be performing extracts of the play at the upcoming BCA Open Weekend on 26/27th April.
