A Midsummer Night’s Dream hardly needs any introduction. It is a pastoral comedy infused with a fairy-like, transcendental, yet also distinctly real world. As one of William Shakespeare’s most popular works, it opens up fundamental questions about the relationship between reality and dreams, as well as between social norms and their impact on the individual.

During the creative process, the focus was on the challenge of shaping a performative world that would bring a text written more than 500 years ago closer to today’s audience. A key task was finding a balance between preserving its original essence and placing it within a completely different contemporary context. Special attention is given to the question of how to stage the fairy world today and how to think it within contemporary theatrical poetics.
