Acclaimed theatre company Propeller return to Theatre Royal Brighton this June to present revivals of their hugely successful productions of Shakespeare’s A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM and THE COMEDY OF ERRORS. Both are directedby artistic director Edward Hall.
Propeller’s production of A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM, Shakespeare’s most magical play,has enchanted packed houses all over the world. Love and illusion collide when two pairs of lovers become entangled in fairy mischief on the eve of a Royal Wedding. Dreams and reality become interchangeable and romantic chaos ensues.
“There are in fact four storylines in A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM”, says Hall. “Shakespeare sets out each storyline and then they all collide in Act Five and everyone goes home happy. It’s an absolute masterpiece”.
In THE COMEDY OF ERRORS, Shakespeare’s most farcical play, two sets of estranged twins, separated at birth, find themselves in the same city 25 years later. A series of mistaken identities, assumed personas, and wild mishaps bring a family crisis – so complicated that time itself loses the plot – into focus.
“This production ofTHE COMEDY OF ERRORS is set in a sort of 1980s package holiday island, where there are sombreros, sunglasses, too much sangria and sun, and people getting into trouble”, says Hall. “It’s colourful, fast and funny”.
All members of the company will appear in both productions.
Don’t miss one of the country’s most innovative, energetic and exciting theatre companies when they visit Theatre Royal Brighton from 10 – 14 June.
