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. Blue Roses is a unique youth company, featuring the talents of young adults aged 18-25 in all areas of theatre, from the creative to the technical, through even to the administrative. The gala will feature the work of local schoolchildren who have been involved in Outreach programmes co-ordinated by Blue Roses and the National Youth Theatre.
