Outdoor Theatre: A Midsummer Night's Dream
Enjoy a tale of love, magic and mayhem with a telling of a Midsummer Night's Dream by the Three Inch Fools, hosted by Dunster Castle. Early Bird Tickets available now.
- Booking essential
It’s Midsummer’s eve and deep in an enchanted forest mischief is stirring. The Fairy King and Queen are feuding, four runaway lovers are tying themselves in knots, and a troupe of quite appalling actors are preparing a theatrical extravaganza destined to impress. With shapeshifting trouble-maker Puck at the helm, the course of true love never did run smooth.
Bring your own rugs and camping-chairs and join us on an outdoor adventure. Refreshments will be available before the performance and during the interval.
