A Midsummer Night’s Dream -Three Inch Fools - Open Air Theatre at Raby Castle

About

Join us for a magical evening as we welcome back the brilliant Three Inch Fools to perform Shakespeare’s most iconic comedy, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, in the atmospheric setting of Raby Castle’s open-air theatre.

Set within our breathtaking grass amphitheatre – the first of its kind in the North of England – this unique venue is nestled in the East Garden, with sweeping views of the historic castle rising in the distance. A truly unforgettable backdrop for an evening of live theatre.

Expect a riotous, high-energy retelling of Shakespeare’s enchanted tale, where mischief runs wild in a moonlit forest. The Fairy King and Queen are feuding, four runaway lovers are tying themselves in knots, and a troupe of quite appalling actors are preparing a theatrical extravaganza destined to impress. With shapeshifting trouble-maker Puck at the helm, the course of true love never did run smooth.
