A Midsummer Night's Dream Tickets

· Shakespeare
Experience Shakespeare’s best-loved comedy in the heart of Covent Garden with the award-winning Iris Theatre.
Overview
It’s Midsummer’s night and the students of Athens High are getting ready for a party. Young Demetrius is about to be crowned prom king with his queen-to-be (he hopes) Hermia. Only problem is, she’s in love with someone else…
Fleeing her homecoming throne, Hermia escapes to the forest where new mysteries await her. A feuding fairy King and Queen plot revenge, a band of travelling misfits prepare for their latest performance whilst a magical trickster pursues mischief.
Expect enchantments, merriment, 90s throwbacks (think She's The Man and 10 Things I Hate About You!) and love triangles aplenty in this hilarious romp through the gardens of the stunning Actors Church in Central London. Can love really conquer all?

Escape the hustle and bustle, enjoy a drink at our pop-up bars and celebrate the arrival of summer, right in the heart of Covent Garden.
