The third A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM of 2026 reviewed (follow link) This is at Chichester Festival Theatre and is a major production, It’s a radical new version, set in 1994 in Sussex. Theseus and Hippolyta are Conservative politicians and Raves have just been banned. The lovers end up at the rave, run by rich Bohemians, Titania and Oberon. The ‘rude mechanicals’ are the local Young Conservative Association, with Bottom the Video Rental’s Shop Owner. It’s very different, but then the Dream can be. See the review.
