Details

On a midsummer's night Hermia and her lover Lysander flee from Athens and Demetrius - the man Hermia's father favours as a son-in-law. Demetrius follows, pursued by Helena who loves him in spite of being spurned in favour of Hermia. On the same night Bottom and his friends leave Athens to find somewhere quiet to rehearse their play which is to be performed at the wedding feast of Duke Theseus. Drawn into the woods they enter a world of magic, mystery and wonder. Following their storming and vibrant interpretation of Romeo and Juliet earlier this year, young people aged 14+ from across Wandsworth and South London will devise their own performance piece directed by Filiz Ozcan and Mukul Ahmed.
