A Midsummer Night’s Dream at the Belgrade Theatre, Coventry

Oddsocks returns to the Belgrade with another high-energy, feel-good, family theatre show. Shakespeare’s most magical, fast paced, hilarious comedy, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, will be performed in Oddsocks’ inimitable irreverent and knockabout style with live music, comedy action and even some outrageous hunting dogs!

Four lovers run off to an Athenian forest where mysterious woodland creatures play tricks on them with hilarious results and when a troupe of amateur actors decide to rehearse in a glade the fairies intervention leads to bizarre and outrageous comedy.

“Many times the beauty and cadence of the bard’s lines ring out even amidst the comedic clamour.” – Audience Member

“A magical combination of farce, physical theatre, silly sight gags, puppetry and, yes, the bard’s immortal prose.” – The Reviews Hub
