About this event

Cornwall Youth Theatre Company present their quirky & comic retelling of A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Cornwall Youth Theatre are on the road again!

In 2024 and 2025 we’ve taken on one of Shakespeare’s most beloved plays: A Midsummer Night’s Dream for the 4th time (what can we say it’s a gem and we love it).

Touring across Cornwall in March 2025 this dynamic, upbeat and quirky retelling of a time-honoured classic will bring laughter, comedy, and magic to venues across Cornwall this Spring. Our talented troupe of young actors will not fail to impress audiences with this version of the classic tale of love, magic, misunderstanding and mischief.

In Midsummer Night’s Dream expect a Duke and Duchess who are about to be married, an angry fairy King and his disobedient Queen, four frustrated human lovers, and six terrible actors trying to put on a play in an enchanted forest.

“The course of true love never did run smooth.”

2024 is Cornwall Youth Theatre Company’s 40th anniversary year. Since 1984 the company have worked with thousands of young people from across Cornwall, performing hundreds of plays. This year, at the request of the company, we are taking on a Shakespeare. Previous Shakespeare plays we’ve performed are Twelfth Night and the Scottish Play, as well as A Midsummers Night’s Dream on three other occasions. We’re excited to take on one of Shakespeare’s most well-known plays as we celebrate our anniversary year.

We are touring to four venues across Cornwall this March!
We’re touring to four awesome venues this Spring:
