Join Puck, Shakespeare’s most mischievous fairy, on a comedic and heartfelt ride through his magical origin story. A family show, inspired by A Midsummer Night’s Dream and The Mad Pranks And Merry Jests Of Robin Goodfellow.
Puck: A Fairy’s Tale is a magical peek into Puck’s life before A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Who is Puck? Can he stop the war between his parents? And what’s all this about a magic flower? Join us and find out!
A new play, written and performed by Fay Downie (The 39 Steps, solo Comedy Of Errors at Shakespeare’s Globe), perfect for the young and young at heart.
The show also explores themes of neurodivergence, mixed heritage, family relationships, identity, and feeling ‘different’.
Age guide: 7-99+ year olds. Younger children are welcome.
Fay is running a Puck-themed drama workshop after the show on the 26th May. Tickets via the ticketing link.
