A Midsummer Night’s Dream

On the Summer Solstice, Saturday 21 June

To help raise funds for the Food Forest Project’s new community farm in Wedmore, we are putting on a special performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream outdoors in the beautiful grounds of the farm. The farm grows free fresh food for local food banks, as well as hosting social and environmental programmes and much more. You can find out all about the farm at their website https://www.wedmorevillagefarm.co.uk

On Midsummer’s eve, four rebellious young lovers, a band of ambitious artisan players, and a feuding Fairy King and Queen all cross paths in a riotously enchanted forest. When the shapeshifting, mischief-making Puck, the Fairy King’s servant, is ordered to cast spells on everyone, what could possibly go wrong?

All hell breaks loose as nature, and human nature, are turned upside down and inside out; the forest’s new inhabitants are in for a wild and unsettling night of love, jealousy and utter confusion… and will the artisans succeed in putting on their amateur production the next day or will it end up as a complete farce?

There will be 2 performances only, one in the afternoon and one in the early evening. The action will take place on the Farm’s brand new stage and seating will be informal – bring your own folding chairs to watch the show.
