About A Midsummer Night's Dream - Burnley Mechanics

A Midsummer Night’s Dream follows on from Flabbergast’s stunning version of _The Tragedy of Macbeth_ and continues to develop their reputation for adapting classics in an innovative and refreshing way.

The AWARD WINNING FLABBERGAST THEATRE bring a rambunctious approach to Shakespeare’s much-loved comedy A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Goblins and Sprites run amok as the King and Queen of the Faeries settle a spat causing havoc among the humans caught up in their machinations.

The action focusses on a troupe of players travelling with their beautiful vintage Haywain frantically multi-role-ing and BRINGING THE WORLD TO LIFE WITH JOY AND EXCITEMENT.

ARCADIAN FOLK SONGS, SLAPSTICK COMEDY, AND MASK WORK combine with a respectful approach to the text, an irreverent attitude and a FOCUS ON STORYTELLING to bring the magic of midsummer alive with physical comedy, song, and dance.
