Midsummer Night's Dream

Robert Swindells''s A Midsummer Night''s Dream is set in a very modern-day Yorkshire. Theseus, the neighbourhood tycoon is getting married. Bottom and his mates are roped into putting on a play for the wedding because, well, there''s nothing much to do when you''re on the dole. But, before the wedding, there are young lovers with problems to resolve ... and a drop of magic and mischief in the mix!

The Shakespeare Today series captures the magic of Shakespeare''s text and sets it in an accessible and contemporary style.
