A MIDSUMMER NIGHT's DREAM Plays Middle Temple Hall April 6-14
By: Gabrielle Sierra Jan. 23, 2012
A Midsummer Night's Dream, by William Shakespeare, is being performed in Middle Temple Hall for ten performances.
About the show: "A Midsummer Night's Dream will combine madcap comedy, lyrical poetry, evocative music and visual spectacle in an enchanting experience for the whole family. When a handful of humans accidentally stumble into the magical realm of the fairies, the stage is set for a night of comical confusion in the moonlit woods. Can true love - and a little bit of magic - conjure up a happy ending before the sun rises?"
A Midsummer Night's Dream will run for 10 performances from Friday 6 April (Good?Friday) to Saturday 14 April.
Directed by Ben Horslen and John Risebero
Design by John Risebero
Music by James Burrows
Antic Disposition are returning to Middle Temple Hall following their production of The Tempest last summer, which marked the play's 400th anniversary.
About the venue: Located in the secluded heart of London's legal quarter between Fleet Street and the Embankment, Middle Temple Hall was completed in 1573 and remains virtually unchanged to this day. Antic Disposition's Dream offers a rare opportunity to visit and explore the cobbled lanes and quiet courtyards of this little-known area of the city.
Antic Disposition was founded by director Ben Horslen and designer John Risebero in 2005, and specialises in clear, imaginative productions of classic plays and stories. The company is used to creating theatre in unusual spaces – four earlier productions were staged in the magnificent derelict church, St Stephen’s, Hampstead, and each summer they tour a Shakespeare play around the stunning medieval villages of southwest France.
