Description:
A romantic comedy about four warring couples, a donkey’s head, and a gaggle of fairies…A Midsummer Night's Dream, a romantic comedy about warring couples, set in a weekend holiday park. Theseus and Hippolyta were once Hippies, now they are celebrating their 35th wedding anniversary and intend to renew their vows among the cellulite, socks and sandals of the holiday camp. A family break at Dreamparks forest retreat and activity centre. Amongst the natural and magical setting of our holiday park, proud parents Theo and Polly Moon are holding a weekend party to celebrate their daughter Hermia’s engagement to her childhood sweetheart, and boy-next-door James. As the guests are about to toast the happy couple, a young man comes crashing into the party and Hermia is forced to announce that she loves another - this man is Zander, they met at university and he is ‘the one’, not James. The disgraced couple run off into the woods together until the heat dies down. Hermia’s best friend Helena has been let into the secret, but is in fact rather pleased at the news as she’s had a lifelong - unreciprocated - crush on James. She and James make their way into the woods in search of the others. Something disturbing is happening though: Theo is having hallucinations. He hasn’t suffered from these visions for a long time… a gang of bickering fairies and their leader Oberon, are haunting him and trying to give him marital advice. The fairies then return to the woods to settle scores amongst themselves and cause havoc amongst the young lovers. Under the light of the moon, Oberon, the leader, decides to make mischief with his spells, ending in hilarious consequences. He tricks his wife Titania into falling in love with the now ass-headed Bottom, and he engineers false feelings between the young couples so that everyone jilts their own true love.Having enjoyed the power of revenge, Oberon removes the spells and all returns to normal. True love conquers: James and Helena proclaim their love for one another, Hermia and Zander’s relationship is accepted, and Theo and Polly see life in a happier light. Even Oberon’s relationship with Titania is refreshed. The cabaret show goes down a storm (even if the magician’s tricks are helped along by the hand of a fairy).
