'A Midsummer Night's Dream' in the Meadow
This July, Durham Wildlife Trust’s 50th Anniversary year will come to a close. To help us celebrate our 50th, albeit delayed as a result of Covid, the Trust is planning something a little bit different.
Join Theatre Space North East and Durham Wildlife Trust in a specially created performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream - as you have never seen it before.
With five actors, a trunk full of props, and a little bit of madness, Theatre Space will tell you a story of lovers on the run, fairy kingdoms at war, and a group of workers trying to put on a play – all in 30 minutes! The performance will be in the very appropriate and seasonal surroundings of a meadow at Rainton Meadows Nature Reserve, guaranteed to bring the whole story to life.
This performance is suitable for all the family – adults and children alike. A perfect bit of summer fun to celebrate all that Durham Wildlife Trust has achieved over the last 50 years. There will be three performances, all held on Saturday 25th June, 2022, at Rainton Meadows Nature Reserve.
Tickets are for standing views or picnic spots, you need to bring your own picnic blanket or camping chair.
Make it extra special and book a takeaway afternoon tea from The Meadows Coffee Shop on site, to enjoy while you watch the show. Pre booking for afternoon teas is essential - call 0191 512 8940.
