A Midsummer Night's Dream

The story: Helena loves Demetrius, Demetrius loves Hermia, and Hermia loves Lysander! When the Duke decrees that Hermia must marry a man she does not love, she and her true love run away into the enchanted forest of Athens, with Demetrius and Helena hot on their trail. Unbeknownst to them, they wander directly into a feud between the Queen and King of the Fairies. Throw in a mischievous sprite named Puck, a band of terrible wannabe actors desperate to for their big break, mistaken identity and a magic love potion, and chaos ensues, with everyone falling in love with the wrong person!

The course of true love never did run smooth...

This fun, dynamic, interactive, show is not your average Shakespeare! Featuring an original musical score played live,16 actors portraying more than 20 loveable characters, slapstick, physical comedy, and some of Kamloops best and brightest talents, A Midsummer Nights Dream has something for the whole family. The larger than life characters are clad in vibrant colours and Edwardian-inspired silhouettes (think Downton Abbey meets Bugs Bunny) set against the background of the Athenean forest - a veritable playground of surprises made from recycled materials. Plus, the Shakespearean language is so clear, we guarantee youll understand whats going on! Dont miss out on this theatrical event of the season - book your tickets today.
