 | A feast of magic, music, humour and spectacle, A Midsummer Night's Dream is one of Shakespeare's best -loved comedies. This production revives Gregory Doran's hugely popular and critically acclaimed show from the 2005 Comedies Season.
Joe Dixon, who played Oberon in the 2005 production, returns to the Company to take the role of Bottom. The role of Oberon will be played by Peter de Jersey, who last performed with the Company as Antiochus in Believe What You Will, Evander in A New Way To Please You and Macro in Sejanus: His Fall, all as part of the 2005 Gunpowder Season.
Also returning to the Company is Mark Hadfield, who takes the role of Puck following his most recent RSC performance as Chaucer in The Canterbury Tales (2005). Making her RSC debut as Hermia is Kathryn Drysdale. Perhaps best known for her role as Louise in BBC 2's comedy Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps, she has also recently appeared in the film St Trinian's, as well as performing in Catch at the Royal Court Theatre.
Please Note: The production has very prompt start times and no latecomers will be admitted. |
