FEBRUARY 20 - FEBRUARY 28, 2026
By William Shakespeare
Directed and Adapted by Jennifer Hunter
Where Gears Turn, Magic Whirls, and Love Runs Wild...
Shakespeare's most enchanting comedy gets a bold new twist - set against the smoky skies and brass-bound wonder of the Industrial Revolution. Welcome to a steampunk-inspired dreamworld, where steam power meets fairy power, and nothing is as it seems. On the shortest - and strangest - night of the year, four wildly entertaining ta les collide: a royal wedding amid the rise of the industry, a feud between the mechanical-minded fairy king and his fierce queen, young lovers thrown into a whirlwind of romantic confusion, and a troupe of amateur actors cobbling together a play with more ambition than talent.
Expect love, mischief, and a touch of steam-powered magic. This is A Midsummer Night's Dream like you've never seen it before.
On Sale December 10.
