Bottom's Dream
 

Bottom has had a most rare vision. He’s just woken up in the forest after a strange dream involving fairies, magic flowers and donkey ears. Was it just a dream, or was it real?

Join us these school holidays for an immersive, interactive introduction to Shakespeare with live performances and hands-on activities based on the show!

In this adventurous, hilarious and heart-warming show, we explore the magic and mayhem of Shakespeare's classic comedy, A Midsummer Night's Dream. Take Bottom's hand and help him piece together his strange dream through key scenes from the original play, playing with Shakespeare’s language and characters along the way.

This is A Midsummer Night’s Dream through the eyes of one of Shakespeare’s greatest clowns. A magical introduction to Shakespeare for primary students.

    Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    This is not your dear old Grandmother’s Hamlet, it is your drunk Uncle’s, who remembers every Monty Python episode by heart.

    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.

    Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
  • The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
    This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.
  • The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.
