A magical play full of fast-paced, interactive fun for all the family
A fun, fast-paced family version of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, it has all the comedy and confusion of the original play but is considerably shorter (about 50 minutes) with more audience interaction, songs, water pistols and none of the long boring speeches. However, within the informal theatrical style, occasional snippets of original text slip in, allowing everyone to enjoy some authentic Shakespearean language.
Recommended for ages 5-11, but suitable for all! In collaboration with the Canterbury Shakespeare Festival About Cut out Theatre The Cut-out Theatre players are Claire Watson, Katie Dalehurst and Nick Surridge who each share a passion for live performance and encouraging children in drama. Following their sold-out run at Canterbury Shakespeare Festival in 2023, they have toured the show and in 2025 their dates include the Brighton Fringe Festival and Sidmouth Folk Festival.
