CricklePlayers Presents - A Midsummer Night's Dream with Mary Chater

Step into Shakespeare's enchanted forest in this lively series of practical workshops led by renowned local actor Mary Chater, who comes at Shakespeare from a dramatic rather than academic perspective.

Together you'll read A Midsummer Night's Dream, explore its unforgettable characters, and bring its most magical scenes to life. By getting the actors on their feet and "standing the scenes up", you'll discover just how funny, touching and delightfully chaotic this much-loved comedy really is.

Whether you've never read Shakespeare before or know the play well, these friendly, informal sessions are designed to build confidence, spark imagination and, above all, be great fun.

No acting experience required—just curiosity and a willingness to join in. You will need  an Arden edition of the play, obtainable cheaply at Abe Books. We have a limited number of second hand (good quality) paperbacks for sale. First come, first served!

Over 18s only.
