We are delighted to welcome Bear in the Air Productions back to Banbury CC!
The cast will be bringing their version of A Midsummer Night's Dream to White Post Road on Wednesday 16th August at 6:30pm!
Hermia and Lysander plan to elope so they can defy her parents' wish that she marry Demetrius. They take off into the enchanted woods with Demetrius and the love-lorn Helena hot on their heels.
Deep in the magical forest, the King and Queen of the faeries, Oberon and Titania, are having a marital spat. It is into this enchanted chaos that the lovers stumble and find their predicament further entangled by the faeries' magical meddling.
To complicate matters, some hapless locals are caught in the crossfire of Oberon's jealous revenge plot aided by his mischievous sprite, Puck. They see their play rehearsals as a very serious matter, but when their lead actor, Bottom, is transformed into an ass, things go predictably awry. Their final presentation of the play is the comedic culmination of A Midsummer Night's Dream and arguably Shakespeare's finest comedy moment.
This is a fund-raising event. A share of the ticket price goes to the club.
This event will be outdoors on grass, so we encourage you to bring your own chair or picnic blanket. Some chairs may be available at the venue, but this is not guaranteed.
Bar open, and food available!
