Synopsis
In the woods outside Athens, the fairy king and queen are squabbling over a changeling. Enter a pair of runaway lovers intent on eloping, a suitor in pursuit, and a group of workers rehearsing their humble play as a gift for the duke's wedding. The realms of humans and fairies collide as Puck works his mischief. A Kidsummer Night's Dream, a musical adaptation of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, is a marvelous musical that explodes in a joyous celebration of Shakespeare's classic comedy. Kidsummer is full of mischief and mayhem, misunderstandings and magic potion mix-ups, as kings and queens, humble workers, fairies, parents and kids all chase their dreams. This show is simply… MAGIC!

Customer Reviews
Brilliant! A Kidsummer NightÕs Dream was an excellent script, as students grasped the concepts extremely well and certainly did the production proud. Comments such as 'The best production yet' were numerous. One that Year 6, 2006, will never forget.
This is a very cleverly written play for a wide range of children, age- as well as experience-wise. It is a great way to introduce Shakespeare at a very young age. The songs are simple enough for even a non-singer to sound great! You can tell the same story with 12 kids or 50!
