A Midsummer Night's Dream

Tour synopsis, cast & creatives

An operatic version of Shakespeare's fantasy play. With great skill and sensitivity, Britten presents the play as a charming opera, retaining the serene magic of the forest, the distress of the lovers, Puck's mischief, and Bottom's lamentably amateur theatre company. Performed in English with English subtitles.

Approximate runtime 3 hours.
