“The course of true love never did run smooth”

Northern Ballet Theatre brings its magic to Shakespeare’s most bewitching play in this critically acclaimed dance version of A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

The romantic antics of a touring dance company are played out on one midsummer night as the company travels by sleeper train from London to Edinburgh. Dior inspired costumes and stylish black and white sets provide a dazzling contrast to the glorious Technicolor of the dream-world, whilst David Nixon’s choreography brings out the comedy, romance and entanglements of this enchanting story. Set to music by Mendelssohn and Brahms, A Midsummer Night’s Dream is one of NBT’s most magical productions.

Read the full scenario for A Midsummer Night's Dream.

The show opens the Autumn/Winter 2007 tour on Thursday the 6th of September at the West Yorkshire Playhouse, Leeds.
