“If we shadows have offended, Think but this, and all is mended… That you have but slumbered here While these visions did appear…”

Quantum Theatre presents a brand new production of Shakespeare’s most enduringly popular play of love and intrigue, magic and celebration set on that most dangerous of nights when fairies are abroad and nothing is as it seems…

With a quarrel raging between Oberon, King of the fairies and his Queen, Titania four young lovers become entangled in their magical affray and soon no mortals are safe in those bewitched and bewitching woods outside Athens. This delightful new production presents a flight of magical fancy where real life is unexpectedly entangled with the supernatural, where willow-the-wisp fairies, unsuspecting artisans and ardent young lovers are woven together by the finest gossamer thread:

“I have had a dream, past the wit of man to say what dream it was…”

The show will take place on the top lawn by the Visitor’s Centre at Ventnor Botanic Gardens, so don’t forget to bring something to sit on and picnics are welcome!
