QSE's Shakespeare Prison Project Presents A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM
Three worlds collide in this story of magic and mischief.
Three worlds collide in this story of magic and mischief, where feuding fairies and fleeing lovers grapple with jealously and chase love. Meanwhile, in the ensuing mayhem, a little band of actors desperately try to put on a play!
The third time's a charm for this year's Shakespeare Prison Project, which began in March with a robust and enthusiastic ensemble of women choosing A Midsummer Night's Dream for their 2020 production. But much like the play, the path to performance was not smooth, with the project suspended twice due to COVID-19.
"After the sad departure of some cast, and the jubilant introduction of others, our energetic band of players, are set to bring you a collage of music, movement and memorable scenes from this terribly tangled web..." said Project Director Liliana Macarone
Originally drawn to the escapism of playing in a fantasy world of love-potions and transformation, the cast are especially appreciating this now after a particularly challenging year and are keen to share the same experience with audiences soon.
Audiences members are invited to learn more about the project through a Q&A with the cast and morning/ afternoon tea after the performance.
