A Midsummer Night’s Dream
Bristol Old Vic / From UK
The team responsible for creating the internationally acclaimed War Horse reunites for Shakespeare's irresistible story of love, lust, survival and enchantment, set in a world where even everyday objects pulse and tingle with the possibility of existence.
For the first time since their collaboration on the internationally acclaimed War Horse Tom Morris and Handspring reunite for Shakespeare’s irresistible A Midsummer Night’s Dream. In this Midsummer, it’s not just the lovers, foes and fairies who are spellbound. Trees, objects and tools all pulse and tingle with the possibility of existence in a future primitive world where, thanks to the magic of Handspring Puppet Company alongside a brilliant company of actors, all objects are granted the right to life.
