This unmissable show will reimagine the four lovers from Shakespeare’s OG romantic comedy in an astonishing display of Circus, Music and Wonder.
“Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind...”
Join the Circus Factory crew as the sun goes down for a circus-infused excerpt from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Become voyeurs of Desire, Jealousy, Rivalry and Scorn as you witness spectacular acrobatic performances answering the age old question: is love just lust, or rational thought?
Directed by Noelle Ní Ríagáin, adapted by Cormac Mohally and including artists Lidija Šola, Cormac Mohally, Callum Donald, Henrik Gard and Ali Stanger, alongside the legendary musician 0phelia McCabe.
