Outdoor Theatre in Quex Gardens

Bursting with mischief, chaos, romance and magic, this joyful, family-friendly outdoor production reimagines Shakespeare’s hilarious comedy with a bold splash of contemporary flair.

Escape into the enchanted forest alongside Hermia, Lysander, Helena and Demetrius as they get more than they bargained for, when a vibrant cast of magical woodland fairies take matters into their own hands.

With East London Shakespeare Festival’s signature high-energy numbers, slapstick comedy, and audience participation, this is Shakespeare for everyone!

Gates open an hour before the show, so bring a picnic, soak up the atmosphere. There is also a café on-site open throughout the show for refreshments.

For younger members of the audience (Aged 3+), you can also take part in a pre-show ‘flower-fairy’ headband-making workshop run by cast members. This is at a small additional charge to show tickets so please add a separate workshop ticket when booking.
