S4K's A Midsummer Night's Dream available to buy on DVD
An impending Royal Wedding, amateur play rehearsals, feuding in Fairyland and courtship problems... all on one magical, mixed-up, midsummer night. And available NOW on DVD.
Midsummer musical magic and mayhem
Set in Athens against a background of a Royal Wedding, S4K's A Midsummer Night's Dream tells three interweaving stories. Four young friends are involved in a dispute concerning an arranged marriage; six working men rehearse their (not very good) play they hope will be performed at the Royal Wedding Feast; and the King and Queen of Fairyland's constant arguing is upsetting the balance of the mortal world. Puck the mischievous sprite mixes and mixes up these ingredients to make midsummer madness in the woods… or is it all a Dream?
A unique blend of the original text with modern dialogue and lively music, S4K's music theatre Shakespeare interpretations of the classic plays have established the company as favourites with audiences near and far. Julian Chenery and Matt Gimblett's cleverly crafted musical adaptations create Shakespeare that is genuinely for everyone.
