A Midsummer Nights Dream by Breakaway Theatre - Inn on the Park
Inn on the Park St Albans, St Albans, AL3 4SN
Thursday 2nd July 2026 - Saturday 4th July 2026
Breakaway's back with William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream being performed in 2 outside venues in July.
We will be at Inn on the Park - St Albans on Thursday 2nd - Saturday 4th July, and then at The United Reformed Church on Watford Road, Chiswell Green on Thursday 9th - Saturday 11th July 2026. All performances start at 7.30 pm.
Set in the heart of the Victorian era, this production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream explores a world where society expects women to be obedient, yet change is quietly stirring. As tradition clashes with independence, Shakespeare’s spirited heroines begin to challenge the roles imposed upon them, seeking love, freedom, and a voice of their own. Against a backdrop of strict social rules and enchanting woodland mischief, romance and rebellion intertwine. Magic, mistaken identities and shifting loyalties blur the boundaries between duty and desire in this timeless tale of transformation, where women dare to imagine a different future.
There will be a 20 minute interval and it is anticipated the performance will end around 10.15 pm.
Chilli Con Carne + Veggie option will be available to buy. The Bar will also be open.
Non-reserved seating is available at picnic tables, or feel free to bring your own.
