A Midsummer Night's Dream

The Gloucestershire Shakespeare Collective are delighted to present a new immersive, promenade performance of ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ in a theatrical first for Cheltenham.
Be transported from a royal Court charged with electric energy and love tangles into a wood where strange, magical, and musical things happen all around you. Will the lovers find their way out of the wood? Will Nature return to a calmer state? Will the workmen fulfil their dream of performing their comical tragedy, ‘Pyramus and Thisbe,’ in front of the Court?
Join us as you meet favourite characters such as Bottom and Puck and the ‘whole Company’ weave their magic throughout the ground floor of this lovely community theatre in a fully accessible performance that is proudly presented in association with The Cheltenham Playhouse.
About the Gloucestershire Shakespeare Collective
This Collective was formed in November 2025 to bring together creatives from both the professional and amateur worlds through workshops, theory, and play. We aim to present two plays by Shakespeare every year, with the Company drawn from those of the 40 Collective members who can commit to a professional production at different times. We have members from all over Gloucestershire and are a mix of working and amateur actors. We are fully inclusive and always welcome new members to our workshops and the Collective as a whole.
