Britten / A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM
Playing April 14, 16, 22 | 2016 at 8 pm
Sunday matinee April 24 | 2016 at 2:30 pm
At the Royal Theatre, Victoria, BC | In English with English surtitles
A spat between the king and queen of fairies spills into the human realm, creating an enchanting collision of worlds. Through a single magical night, moonstruck couples fall in and out of love, bumbling rustics try their hands at amateur theatricals with side-splitting results, and the fairies spread accidental chaos far and wide.
With Shakespeare’s language and Britten’s tone paining, this edgy fantasy is at once ethereal and hilariously down to earth.
