Moira Furnace is staging an outdoor production of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream next weekend.

The play takes place next Saturday (June 26), when the days are their longest.

It is being staged by Quantum Theatre and the audience is advised to come prepared for whatever the weather may have in store.

The Furnace describes the night like this: "Shakespeare's classic comedy of love and intrigue, magic and mayhem, is brought to life by family favourites Quantum Theatre in their wonderfully funny and exuberant production of the Shakespeare classic.

"Set on that most dangerous of nights when fairies are abroad and nothing is as it seems four young, unsuspecting, lovers become entangled in their magical affray, and soon no mortals are safe in those bewitched and bewitching woods outside Athens.

"This exciting, funny, and enchanting new production is a treat for the whole family. Suitable for all age groups.

"This will be outside, whatever the weather so come prepared and hope for a glorious midsummer night. We will be running a barbecue and bar on the evening.

  • Adults - £15 Children - £10

"Tickets can be booked HERE."
