We are delighted to announce that Oddsocks Productions are again bringing Out door Theatre to Avoncroft Museum. The museum grounds provide a perfect backdrop for a summers evening entertainment and this year their production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream will take place on Sunday evening 6th July. A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM Oddsocks will be taking to the road again in the summer of 2025 with another high-energy, feel-good, family theatre show. Shakespeare’s most magical, fast paced, hilarious comedy; “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” will be performed in Oddsocks’ inimitable irreverent and knockabout style with live music, comedy action and even some outrageous hunting dogs! Four lovers run off to the Athenian forest where mysterious woodland creatures play tricks on them with hilarious results and when a troupe of amateur actors decide to rehearse in a glade, the fairies intervention leads to bizarre and outrageous comedy. Don’t miss out – Catch the Dream!
