Hamlet + A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Two plays, one stage: comedy and tragedy both testing the balance of power and love. Don't miss Hamlet and A Midsummer Night's Dream at The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland!

Hamlet + A Midsummer Night’s Dream

About Hamlet + A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Two kingdoms on the verge of collapse: one driven by revenge, the other by magic. In Hamlet, the Danish court unravels as a prince haunted by his father’s murder seeks justice. Torn between duty and madness, Hamlet’s actions threaten to destroy everything he holds dear. As the line between sanity and chaos blurs, Denmark’s fate teeters on the edge…

In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, the forest outside Athens becomes a battleground of love and illusion in the fairy kingdom. Misguided affections and fairy mischief throw order into disarray, but as morning dawns harmony is restored.

Two plays, one stage: comedy and tragedy both testing the balance of power and love.
