Footsbarn: A Midsummer Night’s Dream October 19, 2007

This Shakespeare favourite is brought to life with a feast of magic, masks and humour all beneath Footsbarn’s stunning Big Top Theatre. Bringing the magic and comedy of the great bard’s masterpiece, Footsbarn’s carnivalesque production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream is a world unto itself. East and West, North and South meet in this production, which makes use of circus clowning, carnival processions, tribal dances, Kabuki, commedia dell’arte, farce and surrealism to create its sense of wonder, its pleasure and magic.
