A Midsummer Night's Dream

A Midsummer Night’s Dream - tickets now available!

This is an exciting, vibrant and edgy reinterpretation of one of Shakespeare’s best-loved plays.  After setting The Tempest in the distant future on a floating wreck of computer parts, d’Overbroeck’s Drama department is relocating A Midsummer Night’s Dream to 1960s America, where the preppy, ordered world of Athens will be rocked to its core by a merry band of freaks and lunatics living on the edge of society.  Featuring a range of classic rock and pop songs of the period, this promises to be a dream that no one will ever forget.

Where and when will the shows take place?
The production will be held at Wychwood School Hall, 72 – 74 Banbury Road, Oxford OX2 6JR.
Shows will take place at the following times:

Wednesday 7 December: 7.30 pm

Friday 9 December: 7.30 pm
