    On a Midsummer’s Night, the real and fairy worlds collide.

    Four young lovers, faced with the prospect of unhappy marriage or worse, flee the court of Athens and stumble into an enchanted forest. Nearby, a group of amateur actors rehearse a play to celebrate an upcoming royal wedding.

    As these mere mortals cross paths with a warring fairy King and Queen, chaos reigns in the natural world. The lines between reality and illusion start to blur and no-one but mischievous Puck knows what is true and what is magic.

    Roles Available: 16-21, all genders welcome. Casting is open to interpretation.

    *Production Dates are April 11-14, 2024. 

    ***The auditions will be held at the same time/date/location. If actors are auditioning for both shows, they will be expected to come prepared with all material required for each show.

    ALL ARE WELCOME TO AUDITION REGARDLESS OF EXPERIENCE
